PM Religion Reflection

"Men are therefore immeasurably interested in acquiring fixed ideas of God, of the soul, and of their general duties to their Creator and their fellow men; for doubt on these first principles would abandon all their actions to chance and would condemn them in some way to disorder and impotence." - Alexis de Tocqueville



"'Fella tol' us to go to the Salvation Army' her eyes grew fierce. 'We was hungry–they made us crawl for our dinner.They took our dignity. They–I hate 'em... I ain't never seen my man beat before, but then–them/Salvation Army done it to 'im." -John Steinbeck (Grapes of Wrath)

"She squirmed closer and pulled his head close... her hand moved behind his head and supported it. Her fingers moved gently in his hair. She looked up and across the barn, and her lips came together and smiled mysteriously." -John Steinbeck (Grapes of Wrath)
