But any kind of man will try the same; and they’ll start promising things, they’ll say they will do whatever you want; but you must be very careful what you ask, and you must never do anything for them until they have performed what they promised; and if there’s a ring, there must be a parson to go with it.”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Margaret Atwood" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/margaret-atwood/and-then-she-sat-me-down-and-combed-out-my-hair-which-was-gentle-and/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/31a/margaret-atwood-40_quote_and-then-she-sat-me-down-and-combed-out_1704548.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/31a/margaret-atwood-40_quote_and-then-she-sat-me-down-and-combed-out_1704548.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/31a/margaret-atwood-40_quote_and-then-she-sat-me-down-and-combed-out_1704548.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“And then she sat me down and combed out my hair, which was gentle and soothing, and she said, Grace, you…” — Margaret Atwood", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 15, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“He rubbed his head. “I’ve always thought it strange that my mother and father have no suspicions about Leck, even knowing his story.

That he could have a Grace that changes the way people think of him. Are there such Graces? I don’t even know.” It had never occurred to her. But he could be Graced. With one eye missing, he could be Graced and no one would ever know. No one would even suspect, for who could suspect a Grace that controlled suspicions? “He could have the Grace of fooling people,” Po said. “The Grace of confusing people with lies, lies that spread from kingdom to kingdom. Imagine it, Katsa—people carrying his lies in their own mouths, and spreading them to believing ears; absurd lies, erasing logic and truth, all the way to Lienid.

But by then I'd figured out the gift of failure, which is that it breaks through all that held breath and isometric tension about needing to look good: it's the gift of feeling floppier. One of the things I'd been most afraid of had finally happened, with a whole lot of people watching, and it had indeed been a nightmare. But sitting with all that vulnerability, I discovered I could ride it...Out of nowhere, I remembered something one of my priest friends had said once, that grace is having a commitment to - or at least an acceptance of - being ineffective and foolish. That our bottled charm is the main roadblock to drinking that clear, cool glass of love. I remembered what Grace's stories were all about: self-forgiveness, and taking care of one another.
