The kernel of love
"How do you know I am capable of love?" she asked . . . "Steady affection perhaps."
"If by steady you mean faithful, there you have it; the kernel of love. I imagine men long for God because of that unchanging faithfulness. The rock under the quicksands. The psalms are full of it."
Elizabeth Goudge, from The Scent of Water
My favorite book :D
