Quote by Paula Wall

“Old woman, you don't thump the Bible at me- you beat it like a drum." "That's because along with being hardheaded, you are apparently hard of hearing." Charlotte pushed off her rocker so hard it slammed against the wall. Nothing irritated her more than having religion shoved down her throat. And no one carried a bigger shovel than Lettie. "Baptists are like fleas!" Charlotte flared. "Impossible to get rid of and irritating as hell!" "On Judgement Day," Lettie said smugly, "I have no doubt the burn will take your mind off the itch.”

“Keep the Faith Sometimes I'd like to be the type who lives my life without a backward glance – then I would dance through days unburdened, fancy-free. Instead, I'm me. You know, the one who counts the cracks on every wall and then recounts them backwards lest it fall (knowing full well the chances are it will). Still, I have moments when I just let go – then I stop counting cracks and count on faith. You ask if the wall falls? Surprise! It's safe.”

“Judgment Day refers to every moment in life when we must decide between doing good deeds and bad deeds. This alone shapes our destiny in the next moment. Judgment Day does not refer to any fictitious event in the calendar of God when people will rise from graves and line up in a queue to be allotted some Heaven or Hell. God does not need to do such shows and employ some prophets as lawyers.”
