Great Divorce Quotes

What attracts me to a book like this are the many quotable statements. They make me think long after I've read them. I have several but will only post one in hopes that others may have picked up on some favorite quotes during their reading.

This quote is found in the preface. I casually read it months ago when reading this book was just a thought.

"If we insist on keeping Hell (or even earth) we shall not see Heaven: if we accept Heaven we shall not be able to retain even the smallest and most intimate souvenirs of Hell."

I would LOVE to hear what's sticking with your during your reading journey!
