Cormac McCarthyI always thought when I got older that God would sort of come into my life in some way. He didn't. I don't blame him. If I was him I'd have the same opinion about me that he does.
About This Quote
I’m sure that a lot of people have a similar thought that when they get older, God might come into their life. They would think that God would be jealous of how successful they are and what they have done. However, I don’t think that’s going to happen. If God were me, I would think the same way about him. If I was him, he wouldn’t be very happy with me if I was very successful and looked down on everyone else.
