Victor J. Banis quotes:

We live surrounded by God's pattern but we aren't high enough to see it. You can elevate yourself, of course. That's the whole point of education, of meditation and prayer. The more one lifts oneself up, the more of the pattern he is able to make out, though only an enlightened few have a perspective lofty enough to see the outline whole."

A good story is a dream shared by the author and the reader. Anything that wakes the reader from the dream is a mortal sin."

It ain't brave if you ain't scared.

Only the mediocre artist is always at his best.
