Quote by Ntombizodwa Siyaya

“The only trick, like that of Genesis, is to allow God to be the one who gives, and not to wish to get it for ourselves. Then the outside appearance would not matter that much, but what is instilled within the character would be our greatest concern.”

Yes, it was peace a man wanted. He reflected with an amused smile that Ruth was much more the sort of woman an author ought to marry: self-effacing, strong, serene, with a sense of humor which occasionally revealed itself in her pleasant eyes. But of course there was no question of his marrying Ruth! For that matter, there was no question of his marrying anyone!”
