On the Lookout for Some Grace

Geoff McFetridge [1]

“Being really in love with someone is sort of like seeing them the way they ought to be seen.” And the fact that we have this as a very isolated experience, most of us, if we’re lucky enough to have it at all, distracts us from the fact that it is another kind of seeing that has a kind of deep grace built into it.”  – Marilynne Robinson, talking about her new book Lila [2].
