How shall a man escape from that which is written; How shall he flee from his destiny?

Man can certainly flee from God... but he cannot escape him. He can certainly hate God and be hateful to God, but he cannot change into its opposite the eternal love of God which triumphs even in his hate.

What we seek we shall find; what we flee from flees from us.

So they shall make their own tongue to fall upon themselves: all that see them shall flee away.

I want to run. To do what I always do, have always done, for the last five years of my life. Escape, flee into the shadows. But this time, I stand my ground. I'm tired of running.

A man's manners are a mirror in which he shows his portrait.
