Quotes by Michelle Huneven (?)

“To find love is the great human undertaking...and it's always complicated by our compulsions and unconscious patterns, to say nothing of issues of trust and control.”

“We鈥檙e so old now,鈥� I said, 鈥渢hat we can actually see the patterns. It鈥檚 a little terrifying.鈥� 鈥淎nd isn鈥檛 it all so interesting?鈥� With a sharpness that was almost a pain, I recalled how, in phone call after late-night phone call so many years ago, as Helen鈥檚 first ministry failed and I struggled to write a second book, we鈥檇 reminded each other that life, in fact, was interesting, endlessly so; an adventure to be observed and intricately discussed. In this way, we encouraged each other鈥攇ave each other the courage鈥攖o keep going.”

“You know, Dana, in my experience, the people who join search committees are often seeking a change for themselves鈥攖he internal self is conducting its own search alongside the church鈥檚.鈥� This set off an internal clamor of thoughts. Of course I was on a parallel search. But what for? 鈥淚 suppose,鈥� I said weakly. 鈥淚鈥檓 definitely learning things about myself.鈥� 鈥淲hat have you learned, may I ask?鈥� 鈥淗ow much I care,鈥� I said. 鈥淎bout the church. And doing the right thing. And also that what I think and how much I care might not matter much to anyone else.鈥� She smiled. 鈥淵ou sound like me,鈥� she said,”
