Ted Dekker Quotes
For me, writing is an experience. It's an exercise in which I want to discover myself by taking my characters to the edges of human experience, to the edges of themselves and then, asking certain questions - about love, what does it mean to love? What's beauty? What is true beauty? What does it mean to be insane - crazy?

Pain'd by the past, expecting ills to come,
In some dread moment, by the fates assign'd,

The speed that spins the future and the past:
And, sovereign of an undisputed throne,
Awful eternity shall reign alone.
