Life of Pi

" Faith in God is an opening up, a letting go, a deep trust, a free act of love-- but sometimes it was so hard to love... Despair was a heavy blackness that let no light in or out. It was a hell beyond expression. I thank God it always passed... The blackness would stir and eventually go away, and God would remain, a shining point of light in my heart. I would go on loving."

--Yann Martel
