When you become 20 something, you have to forgive yourself or you will never grow up. You have to forgive yourself for everything and learn from it.
Anaïs Nin
[…] goodness has very little to do with it. Not all the saints were good. In fact, most of them were a little crazy. But their hearts were with God, left in his hands at birth.
— John Pielmeier, Agnes of God
Belief in the Saints, properly understood, is a shocked assent to the fact that an ass like Ignatius, a self-abusing romantic like Francis, and a whore like Augustine all died loving God more than themselves.
— Marc Barnes, Those Horribly Sappy Saints
