This book is dedicated to my mom,
who carried me through my
childhood with her light, a light
more brilliant than the sun,
and who ushered me into adult-
hood with the awareness that the
light I saw in her was a reflection
of the light in me.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness;
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate;
only love can do that.

—MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.

Angels can fly because they take themselves
lightly.

—G.K. CHESTERTON
