You promised me Heaven... And put me through Hell!
WHEN WE ARE IN LOVE WE ARE IN HEAVEN MEANWHILE WE FORGET THAT EARTH IS BENEATH
Winter changes into stone the water of heaven and the heart of man.
If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went.
Words without thoughts never to heaven go.
Gifts fall from heaven only in fairy tales.
If you read history you will find that the Christians begin the most for the present world are just the ones that thought the most of the next. The Apostles themselves, who set on foot. in the conversion of the Roman Empire, the great men who built u...
Inside the front flap of the book were handwritten names of the dozen or so people who had checked the book out before Naomi. Instead of writing her name, Naomi had a thin paper receipt with the due date printed on it. She could never possess this bo...

Sir Thomas More was a victim of injustice and irony. Generously and meekly, just as he was about to be martyred, he said: Paul . . . was present, and consented to the death of St. Stephen, and kept their clothes that stoned him to death, and yet be t...
...'Space' seemed a blasphemous libel for this empyrean ocean of radiance in which they swam. He could not call it 'dead'; he felt life pouring into him from it every moment. How indeed should it be otherwise, since out of this ocean the worlds and a...
Claudia: Where's mama? Lestat: Mama... mama has gone to heaven, Chérie, like that sweet lady right there. They all go to heaven. Louis: All but us. Lestat: Shh. Do you want to frighten our little daughter? Claudia: I'm not your daughter. Lestat: Oh,...
