Annie Dillard's For The Time Being

"Love alone is capable of uniting living beings in such a way as to complete and fulfill them, for it alone takes them and joins them by what is deepest in themselves. All we need is to imagine our ability to love developing until it embraces the totality of men and the earth." Pierre Teilhard de Chardin as read in Dillard's book.

"[The Labor and Delivery Unit of the hospital is] the wildest deep sea vent on earth…where the people come out"

“The very least likely things for which God might be responsible are what insurers call ‘acts of God.'" (of course this quote depends on your theology, but it's funny nonetheless.)
