A voice speaks up when you enter their acres that can't be mistaken for one you'd hear anyplace else, a voice true to those particular tress,... Charles de Lint
C. S. Lewis quote: "Dearest Daughter. I knew you would not be long in coming to..."
Dearest Daughter. I knew you would not be long in coming to me. Joy shall be yours. C. S. Lewis
There are two ways of persuading men of the truths of our religion; one by the power of reason, the other by the authority of the speaker. We do not use the latter but the former. We do not say: 'You must believe that because Scripture, which says it, is divine,' but we say that it must be believed for such and such a reason.

Then Lymond’s voice, the chill gone, said, ‘Don’t be an ass, Jerott? You know I can’t do without you.’ It was an obvious answer. But it was also something Jerott had never had from Lymond before: an apology and an appeal both at once. Dorothy Dunnett
