“¡Au soleil de la Côte d'Azur, au soleil de la Côte d'Azur! Me resultarías mil veces más divertido, más brillante y más humano, tú, sol de la Côte d'Azur, si hicieras como en el cuento de la apuesta entre el Viento y el Sol, que e elemento masculino se dejara estudiar también. Las aguas de tu Mar Mediterráneo me resultarían más salerosas, su quietud haría calmado contraste con el torbellino que a mis ojos desatarías. Pero ahora parece que los hombres de este lado del mundo son más recatados que sus mujeres. ¿Quién tuvo vergüenza primero de la desnudez de su cuerpo? ¿Fue Adán o fue Eva? Como quiera que haya sido, adonde fueres haz lo que vieres: me desnudo. De pronto, otras ideas me invaden. La anatomía no hace sino comprobarnos la pobre realidad de que el ser humano no ve más allá de la tercera dimensión y llama 'avance' a cuanto más y mejor logra ver objetivamente. Somos pudorosos; incapaces de desnudar nuestros corazones para ---solo sintiéndolo--- decir 'esto existe' ".”

“See what I mean?' Schmarzo said. 'This life fucks with you, man. I always say it's like scratching lottery tickets: when you have enough guys together playing the lottery--buying scratch-offs--of course one or two of them is gonna win big. It's inevitable. But they win and you're left sitting there scratching away. you throw your money and time away one dollar and one day at a time. But those guys won, right? Maybe I can too. So we keep coming back for more until we realize we're broke and out of time.' He leaned forward, elbows on his knees, and got to work staring another hole through the floor. 'That's what it's like to play single-A baseball.”

“You realize that the sleeping stadium is more beautiful at night, with the unshakable quietus rooting it to the earth. It rests like a graveyard--empty but throbbing all at once. With the pollution of light extinguished, maybe you even see the Dog Star blinking back at you.”

“By His grace let it be that 'sound doctrine' is, in itself, not a burden but a privilege to the Christian life. Let it be a form of worship. It is my belief that God has His ways of entering hearts and revealing Himself to people of the world who, perhaps by no fault of their own, have little to no access to doctrine regarding His character and nature and what He is and has been about; but as a people who claim to be His children, ones saved by grace through faith, would it not be hypocritical to downplay a deeper, more intimate understanding of the Lord of our lives in heart, soul, and mind? Where we display shallow relationships, where we salute an arrogant and willful ignorance of the God we serve and the Christ we represent, it is understandable that truth seekers will turn elsewhere for truth. It is with humility, honesty, and respect that every non-nominal Christian is a theologian and an apologist to some degree, to their ability God has gifted.”
