Quote by Tamara K. Walker

“Armoring myself in purely synthetic fibers, I try to little avail to pupate. The banal brutality of a sun-starved world in all its precariously smooth and unforgiving surfaces does precious little to enwrap and facilitate such metamorphoses.”

“The weird thing about the bible is that almost everything in it is a metaphor. So it seems to me that when the bible describes church as a place where two or more people discuss God, they don’t mean just the cathedral like churches. I don’t know what, who or where God is; but if everything is a metaphor, I think he or she is a comparison to us. I think we are like, or as God. I think when we get together, and talk about ourselves, about being human, about what hurts us; we are also talking about God. So that’s also church, right? I know this might seem blasphemous, but my priest tells me its okay to ask questions, even if they seem bizarre.”

"Actually - maybe I am that kind of person after all.”
