Text Quotes
As far as I’m concerned, there is only one absolute: God is love  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Jesus was not a theologian. He was God who told stories.  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Love isn’t how you feel. It’s what you do  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Yes! I dare disturb the universe  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Stories are like children. They grow in their own way  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) As paredes tem ouvidos. (Portuguese: The walls have ears.)  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Vitam impendre vero. (To stake one’s life for the truth.)  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) If you’re going to care about the fall of the sparrow you can’t pick and choose who’s going to be the sparrow. It’s everybody  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) During the long drag of years before our youngest child went to school, my love for my family and my need to write were in acute conflict. The problem was really that I put two things first. My husband and children came first. So did my writing. Bump  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) A long-term marriage has to move beyond chemistry to compatibility, to friendship, to companionship. It is certainly not that passion disappears, but that it is conjoined with other ways of love  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) All real art is, in its true sense, religious; it is a religious impulse; there is no such thing as a non-religious subject. But much bad or downright sacrilegious art depicts so-called religious subjects  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) A life lived in chaos is an impossibility for the artist. No matter how unstructured may seem the painter’s garret in Paris or the poet’s pad in Greenwich Village, the artist must have some kind of order or he will proudce a very small body of work. To create a work of art, great or small, is work, hard work, and work requires discipline and order  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Unlearning is the choice, conscious or unconscious, of any real artist. And it is the true sign of maturity  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Don’t keep putting your anger off. Until you go through it, you can’t get out of it  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) There is little character or loveliness in the face of someone who has shunned risk, avoided suffering and rejected life  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) A Wrinkle in Time was almost never published. You can’t name a major publisher who didn’t reject it  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) I like to take the time out to listen to the trees, much in the same way that I listen to a sea shell, holding my ear against the rough bark of the trunk, hearing the inner singing of the sap. It’s a lovely sound, the beating of the heart of the tree  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Infinity is present in each part. A loving smile contains all art. The motes of starlight spark and dart. A grain of sand holds power and might  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) There is no way that you can read the entire Bible seriously and take every word literally. Contradictions start in the first chapter of Genesis. There are two Creation stories, two stories of the making of Adam and Eve. And that is all right. The Bible is still true  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) A lot of the shadow self is the home of poetry, story, prayer. My deepest understandings are often released from the part of me of which I am least aware most of the time  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) If you don’t recount your family history, it will be lost. Honor your own stories and tell them too. The tales may not seem very important, but they are what binds families and makes each of us who we are  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) The shadows are deepening all around us. Now is the time when we must begin to see our world and ourselves in a different way  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Dare I? Of course I don’t. But I’m going to anyhow because I have no choice  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) I believe that good questions are more important than answers, and the best children’s books ask questions, and make the readers ask questions. And every new question is going to disturb someone’s universe  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) A book, too, can be a star ‘explosive material, capable of stirring up fresh life endlessly  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) Accepting that we are angry is a healthy and appropriate response as long as we don’t get stuck in it. Acknowledging it is one way of going through it.  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) It is an extraordinary and beautiful thing that God, in creation. . . works with the beauty of matter; the reality of things; the discoveries of the senses, all five of them; so that we, in turn, may hear the grass growing; see a face springing to life in love and laughter. . . The offerings of creation. . . our glimpses of truth.  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) To be a witness means to live in such a way that one’s life would not make sense if God did not exist.  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) If I have something I want to say that is too difficult for adults to swallow, then I write it in a book for children. Children still haven’t closed themselves off with fear of the unknown, fear of revolution, or the scramble for security. They are still familiar with the inborn vocabulary of myth  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes) A love which depends solely on romance, on the combustion of two attracting chemistries, tends to fizzle out. The famous lovers usually end up dead. A long-term marriage has to move beyond chemistry to compatibility, to friendship, to companionship. It is certainly not that passion disappears, but that it is conjoined with other ways of love.  (Madeleine LEngle Quotes)
