About our people pages:
Because many visitors have asked for more information about particular people whose words appear on the site, we'll try to give you as much information as we can about individuals.  The Amazon links should give you access to works by the author, though at times they'll display other books if the author has written an essay or introduction for those books.

  

There are no different categories of love.  There isn't
one kind of love between a mother and child, another
between lovers, and another between friends.  The love
that is real is the love that lies at the heart of all
relationships.  That is the love of God and it doesn't
change with form or circumstance.
