God was in the towers (Martin Sheen)

   God was in the towers. God was present to each individual going through that horrible [situation]... facing their own death, individually and with a community. That God is present in our deepest hungers, in our worst times as well as our best, but we often are forced to pray in ways that we can never articulate, in bad times. How often the expression is “Oh, my God,” when we see something good or evil. The expression is the same. “Oh, my God,” you know?

--Martin Sheen
