The Paris slums are a gathering-place for eccentric people — people who have fallen into solitary, half-mad grooves of life and given up trying to be normal or decent. Poverty frees them from normal standards of behaviour, just as money frees people from work. Some of the lodgers in our hotel lived lives that were curious beyond words.George Orwell, Down and Out in Paris and London
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.John 1:5 NIV
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.John 1:3 NIV
