“A moving mind is always fed. At rest, mine eats itself.”

Pierce Brown book Dark Age

Prologue; Darrow
Dark Age (2019)

“The Lord exercises immense courtesy. He never imposes himself, never forces himself upon anyone. If I don’t let him in, he’s not going to force his way in. But that is not to say that someone who does good blindly, but who’s open to that imperative of goodness, isn’t vulnerable to a sort of propaedeutic of the spirit – an inward preparation of the heart that, whether in this world or the next, will bear fruit. Good is always good.”

Erik Varden (1974) Norwegian Monk and Prelate
