As the apple is not the cause of the apple tree, but a fruit of it: even so good works are not the cause of our salvation, but a sign and fruit of the same.

The apple tree never asks the beech how he shall grow, nor the lion the horse, how he shall take his prey.

I'm always telling myself I don't have many feelings. Even when something does affect me I'm only moderately moved. I almost never cry. It's not that I'm stronger than the ones with teary eyes, I'm weaker. They have courage. When all you are is skin and bones, feelings are a brave thing. I'm more of a coward. The difference is minimal though, I just use my strength not to cry. When I do allow myself a feeling, I take the part that hurts and bandage it up with a story that doesn't cry, that doesn't dwell on homesickness.
