1. As much as we want the glory, riches, and knowledge of Dantes, what we need is Jean Valjean's candlesticks.
  2. Heaven is as near as the Word proclaimed from the mouth of the preacher into the ear and heart of the sinner. It is as near as the bread and wine in your mouth. For, you see, Word and sacrament are where Jesus is.
  3. I hear voices in my head accusing me, telling me these sins will be there on the Day of Judgment unless I make atonement.
