Midnight Mass

Father Paul:
That's the thing, isn't it? What do you say? You say, "I'm so sorry for your loss." Or, "God works in mysterious ways. If there's anything I can do..." It's so hollow, isn't it? We can never understand the will of God, and I wouldn't presume to know what to say to Erin Greene other than that. We must trust in the Lord with our whole heart and not rely on our own insights.

Riley Flynn:
Give yourself over, whether you understand or not.

Father Paul:
Sometimes it's okay to just look at the world and say, "Why? Why? Why? I don't understand. And I will not." Yeah, sometimes that's okay.

Riley Flynn:
Yeah, I actually agree with that.

Father Paul:
Well, it's hard not to, isn't it?
