Part of My Fabric ~ Rita Williams

"To me, the core belief of Quakerism, as far as I can see and having become a Quaker later in life, is that there’s a little piece of God in all of us. It gives an equality to everyone and diminishes the thought that people are better than they are. That to me is the important thing. I didn't know I felt that way until I was introduced to Quakerism, but I think it always was part of my fabric, of the way I felt. I didn’t have it in words so much as I felt it." 

–Rita Williams
