But I Would Not Oppose The Invention Of A Telepathic Keyboard.

But I would not oppose the invention of a telepathic keyboard.

it’s easy to put God first and obey Him when you think of it less as an obligation, and more just doing it for someone you love

and when you think about it, it’s EASY to love God. 

if you love another person, they’re made in God’s image. 

if you love nature, He made it to reflect His character. 

if you love beauty, light, truth, justice, mercy, peace - God is all that. 

really, He’s everything good in this world. What WOULDN’T you do for someone like that? 

“Novels help us to resist the temptation to think of the past as deficient of everything that informs the present. When we read Pride and Prejudice or Middlemarch, we’re not tempted to believe that because the characters wear funny hats, get about by horse and don’t talk explicitly about sex that they’re innocents. This is because we are allowed full access, or carefully arranged partial access, to their feelings and thoughts, their dilemmas. Assuming we’ve been carried along by the narrative, they appear before us, these characters, intact, as contemporaries, unscarred by unintended ironies.”

— Ian McEwan, interviewed in The Art of Fiction No. 173 (via theclassicsreader)
