But such and such other things are too dangerous to be left to general rules. If you want to do them you must come and make a request and talk over the whole matter with me in my study. And then—we'll see'. -'Work and Prayer”

If there was anyone who might've inspired her to change course, it was him, despite her normal distaste and disregard for most forms of authority.”
