Favorite Michael Flynn Quotes

1. "Any fool can hope when success lies plainly in view. It wants genuine strength to hope when matters are hopeless." ~ Michael Flynn
2. "But what is hope? When all else is lost, it is the one thing you may keep." ~ Michael Flynn
3. "Peace needs the consent of all, while one alone may raise a war." ~ Michael Flynn
4. "Jesus said the weeds would grow with the wheat until the Judgement," Dietrich answered, "so one finds both good men and bad in the Church. By our fruits we will be known, not by what name we have called ourselves. I have come to believe that there is more grace in becoming wheat than there is in pulling weeds." ~ Michael Flynn
5. "On the hill opposite, Joachim tolled the midday bell, announcing lunch to the workers in the fields. Klaus listened a moment, then said, "I thought it would be a bleaker scene."Dietrich turned to him, "What would be?""This day. I thought it would be marked by terrible signs - lowering clouds, ominous winds, a crack of thunder. Twilight. Yet, it is so ordinary a morning that I grow frightened.""Only now frightened.""Ja. Portents would mean a Divine Mover, however mysterious His moves; and the wrath of an angry God may be turned away by prayer and penance. But it simply happened. Everard grew sick and fell down. There were no signs; so it may be a natural thing, as you have always said. And against nature, we have no recourse." ~ Michael Flynn
6. "When princes flee battle, and knights turn free-lance, and barons rob pilgrims, what value has honor?""Why, all the more, seeing how rare it has become." ~ Michael Flynn
7. "She looked in the mirror and her hopes fell. "Our friend is behind us again and he's coming up fast. Closing the distance."Then he knows we're on to him."Christ! He's got a gun, Red! He's stuck his arm out the window."Don't worry," Red told her. "Shooting a pistol left-handed from a moving car at another moving car at sixty miles an hour at this distance? Hell, he'd be lucky to hit that mountain."There was a sharp crack and the rear window disintegrated into flashing shards. Something buzzed in the air between them and smashed into the tapedeck. Fee howled and ducked into his console.Unless," Red continued thoughtfully, "that's Orvid Crayle behind us. He's very good." ~ Michael Flynn
8. "Ockham snorted. "I am no nominalist. The problem with teaching the Modern Way is that lesser scholars, excited by the novelty, seldom bother to master my insights. There are lips on which I heartily wish my name had never rested. I tell you, Dietl, a man becomes a heretic less for what he writes than for what others believe he has written." ~ Michael Flynn
9. "He was a man of great depth but of limited breadth, so that while he knew very little, he knew a great deal about it." ~ Michael Flynn
10. "For what purpose have you prayed?""For thanks. If I must die, at least I have lived. If my companions have perished, at least I have known them. If the world is cruel, at least I have tasted kindness. I had to cross to the far side of the sky to taste it but, as you say, the world is full of miracles." ~ Michael Flynn
11. "The soul is the form of the body, but not as the shape of a statue is formatio et terminatio materiae, for form does not exist apart from material. There is no whiteness without a white object. But the soul is not a form in this simple sense, and in particular, is not the shape of the material it informs. Therefore, the shape of a being does not affect the being's soul, for then something lower would inform something higher, which is impossible." ~ Michael Flynn
12. "Dirac found that the ratio of the electric force to the gravitational force of an electron-proton pair is roughly equal to the ratio of the age of the universe to the time it takes light to traverse an atom." ~ Michael Flynn
13. "Hans clacked his side-lips. "Do you have the sentence in your head that tomorrow's procession will halt this pest of yours, that it will bar the small-lives from the High Woods?""If it is as you say, no. No more than prayer can stay a charging horse. But that is not why we pray. God is no cheap juggler as to play for a pfennig." ~ Michael Flynn
14. "The body's ills are the least of ills, for they end only in death, which is but a little thing. But if the spirit dies, then all is lost." ~ Michael Flynn
