Letters to God

"I want him to know I'm not mad at him and that I understand why he makes fun of me. Mr. Perryfield says it's because I'm God's warrior and I make him feel things he doesn't want to feel. But that's good, because maybe he'll turn to God for the answers. Or something like that."

 from the movie "Letters to God"

Rabbi Kahane

For so long as the Jew has even one ally, he will be convinced...that his salvation came from that ally. It is only when he is alone- against all of his own efforts and frantic attempts- that he will, through no choice, be compelled to turn to God."
Rabbi Kahane, founder of the Jewish Defense League in the United States

Loyalties in Philly

"We are, like, straight-up loyal. Even if you and I are not agreeing on something, but we're both from Philly and someone is picking on you. I would beat the crap out of that person. We have each others' backs." - M. Night Shyamalan
