I have learned as much about writing about my people by listening to blues and jazz and spirituals as I have from reading novels.

If we would pray aright, the first thing we should do is to see to it that we really get an audience with God, that we really get into His very presence. Before a word of petition is offered, we should have the definite consciousness that we are talking to God, and should believe that He is listening and is going to grant the thing that we ask of Him.
R. A. Torrey
