You cannot say God is a "She." You cannot say God is an "It." (18)"

"For me, everything is God. Everything and everyone. So it was just, God needs me now, now, now."
"I have second thoughts. Maybe God is malicious. Told to Valentine Bargmann."
"At 20 everyone has the face that God gave them, at 40 the face that life gave them, and at 60 the face they earned."
