People pray in one direction but they walk in a different direction, and direction always determines where we end up.
‐‐ Andy Stanley

‐‐ Randeep Hooda

‐‐ Nick Frost

‐‐ Mickey Drexler
People put too much emphasis on looks.

‐‐ Jon Runyan
People question what I thought of Oxford. Students used to talk about the 'Oxford bubble' because the place can make you feel cut off from the rest of the world. I would forget there were places like London that were not centred round libraries and essays.
