1 " Each of us is an innkeeper who decides if there is room for Jesus! "
― Neal A. Maxwell
2 " One response was given by the innkeeper when Mary and Joseph wanted to find a room where the Child could be born. The innkeeper was not hostile; he was not opposed to them, but his inn was crowded; his hands were full; his mind was preoccupied. This§ is the answer that millions are giving today. Like a Bethlehem innkeeper, they cannot find room for Christ. All the accommodations in their hearts are already taken up by other crowding interests. Their response is not atheism. It is not defiance. It is preoccupation and the feeling of being able to get on reasonably well without Christianity. "
― Billy Graham
3 " He hesitated, then lifted his head and sniffed. “Have you been drinking?” The question was more curious than accusatory. “No,” Bast said. The innkeeper raised an eyebrow. “I’ve been tasting,” Bast said, emphasizing the word. “Tasting comes before drinking. "
― Patrick Rothfuss , The Wise Man's Fear (The Kingkiller Chronicle, #2)
4 " The innkeeper loves the drunkard but not for a son-in-law. "
