"For some time she received it all literally, though it appeared strange to her that 'God worked by the day, got tired, and stopped to rest,' etc. But after a little time, she began to reason upon it, thus -- 'Why, if God works by the day, and one day's work tires him, and he is obliged to rest, either from weariness or on account of darkness, or if he waited for the 'cool of the day to walk in the garden,' because he was inconvenienced by the heat of the sun, why then it seems that God cannot do as much as I can; for I can bear the sun at noon, and work several days and nights in succession without being much tired."
- Sojourner Truth and Olive Gilbert
