Quote by Leila Marie Lawler

“Our Lord was born into a family. The family is God's plan for the world–His divine plan, conceived in the very beginning, to be a way of beauty and spreading His word. The special place of prayer at home, the family oratory (oratory means “house of prayer”) is a powerhouse of grace by which our family may be nourished spiritually and thus be able to transform the world through prayer, proclamation of the gospel, and charity. That sounds grand, but it is really very simple and humble, like the Holy Family itself.”

“The connection we feel to other people isn’t bound by geography or space,” Wells began. Although Clarke could see him trembling, his voice was strong and clear. “Sasha and I grew up in two different worlds, each of us wondering and dreaming about what was out there. I watched from above, never knowing for sure whether humans had survived here on Earth. I didn’t know if we’d ever set foot on this planet again or if it would happen in my lifetime. And she looked up”—he pointed at the fading stars, still faintly visible in the dark blue sky—“and wondered if there was anyone up there. Had anyone survived the voyage into space? Had people managed to stay alive up there all these hundreds of years? For both of us, getting answers to our questions seemed so unlikely. But a million tiny forces moved us toward each other, and we got our answers. We found each other, even if it was just for a moment.” Wells took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. “Sasha was my answer.”

“»Gehen wir doch in diesen Film«, meinte sie schließlich einlenkend und deutete auf das Plakat, das eine Geschichte mit Helden und Magischen versprach. Vermutlich hatte sie sich eine historische Nacherzählung erhofft, doch als er mit Getränken und Röstnüssen zurück zu ihren Plätzen kam, während die ersten Sekunden des Films bereits liefen, stellte Zacharias rasch fest, dass dies nicht der Fall war. Von dem erwähnten Ort hatte er noch nie etwas gehört und er kannte die Geschichte des Krieges von Menschen und Magischen vorwärts wie rückwärts. Auch bemerkte er verdächtig viele Personen, deren Augen hell aufleuchteten, wenn er ihren Blicken im Dunkeln begegnete. Erst dann entdeckte er die Siegel-Armreifen aus Eisen an ihren Handgelenken, ohne die die Magischen nicht unter den Menschen leben durften.”
