„God went out of meas if the sea dried up like sandpaper, as if the sunbecame a latrine.God went out of my fingers.They became stone.My body became a side of muttonand despair roamed the slaughterhouse.“

„Every day before supper and before we went to services on Sundays my grandmother would read the Bible to me, and my grandfather would pray. We even had devotions before going to pick cotton in the fields. Prayer and the Bible, became a part of my everyday thoughts and beliefs. I learned to put my trust in God and to seek Him as my strength.“
