Corrie ten Boom Quote

Mama's love had always been the kind that acted itself out with soup pot and sewing basket. But now that these things were taken away, the love seemed as whole as before. She sat in her chair at the window and loved us. She loved the people she saw in the street— and beyond: her love took in the city, the land of Holland, the world. And so I learned that love is larger than the walls which shut it in.
