Mike grinned with unashamed cheerfulness. "I am God.  Thou art God... and any jerk I remove is God, too.  Jubal, it is said that God notes each sparrow that falls.  And so He does.  But the proper closest statement of it that can be made in English is that God cannot avoid noting the sparrow because the Sparrow is God.  And when a cat stalks a sparrow both of them are God, carrying out God's thoughts."
