Look, I know you meant well creating the world and all, but how could you let it get away from you like this? How come you couldn't stick with your original idea of paradise? People's lives were a mess.

Sue Monk Kidd
You can tell which girls lack mothers by the look of their hair.

Probably one or two moments in your whole life you will hear a dark whispering spirit, a voice coming from the center of things. It will have blades for lips and will not stop until it speaks the one secret thing at the heart of it all. Kneeling on the floor, unable to stop shuddering, I heard it plainly. It said, You are unlovable.
Sue Monk Kidd
Still everyone, including the abbot, had said that he was running away from his grief. They'd had no idea what they were talking about. He'd cradled his grief, almost to the point of loving it. For so long he refused to give it up, because leaving it behind was like leaving her.
Sue Monk Kidd

Sue Monk Kidd
Until we look from the bottom up we have nothing.
Sue Monk Kidd
the redness had seeped from the day and night was arranging herself around us. Cooling things down, staining and dyeing the evening purple and blue black.
Sue Monk Kidd
Something deep in all of us yearns for God's beauty, and we can find it no matter where we are.
Sue Monk Kidd
the feminine journey is a story unfolding, and its epiphanies come through real things, through tangibles like walking sticks and dreams and deer antlers--all of which we might miss without taking time and space in Deep Being.
Sue Monk Kidd
You have to know when to prod and when to be quiet, when to let things take their course.
Sue Monk Kidd
If you aren't giving people something to talk about, you've become too dull.
Sue Monk Kidd
When it comes to religion today, we tend to be long on butterflies and short on cocoons. Somehow we're going to have to relearn that the deep things of God don't come suddenly.
Sue Monk Kidd
