Kathryn Lindskoog quotes
-
“It is really rather foolish to so often feel we have to say something brilliant and enlightening to someone who is suffering. Job makes it clear that simple companionship is what suffering people often crave - not a course in philosophy.”
-- Kathryn Lindskoog -
“Inner slavery is even worse than outward slavery; and inner freedom is even better than outward freedom.”
-- Kathryn Lindskoog -
“In Scripture the visitation of an angel is always alarming; it has to begin by saying 'Fear not.' The Victorian angel looks as if it were going to say, 'There, there.' The literary symbols are more dangerous [than sculptures and pictures] because they are not so easily recognized as symbolical. Those of Dante are best. Before his angels we sink in awe.”
-- Kathryn Lindskoog
