Mark Helprin Quote

I don't know for sure, he said, but I can't imagine that God, who is so adept at linking parents with children, would so cruelly separate them. Perhaps it isn't anywhere near the truth. Perhaps I'm merely self-serving. I don't know, but I believe against all odds in exactly what you say. You don't care what anyone else thinks, do you? No, Papa. I never did. That can only be because you believe. Yes. And how does God speak to you? In the language of everything that is beautiful.
