Perhaps one of the best Facebook fan sites is that of Flannery O'Connor. Occasionally the administrator shares quotes. Here are some I enjoyed:
"Any criticism at all which depresses you to the extent that you feel you cannot ever write anything worth anything is from the Devil and to subject yourself to it is for you an occasion of sin." Letter to Betty Hester, November 15, 1960, "The Habit of Being"
"I measure God by everything I am not." Letter, 2/4/61
"All my stories are about the action of grace on a character who is not very willing to support it." --Letter, 4/4/58
