You can’t let outside expectations keep you from following your own heart.”

Cooper; and as impudently denounced as if they really knew what it is.
“This is the glory of our religion: that when man decides to rise up from his mistakes, from his sin, from his evil, there is a loving God saying, “Come home, I still love you.”
