Amazing Grace

I watched the film 'Amazing Grace' last night. It is about William Wilberforce and his campaign to bring about the abolition of the slade trade.
My favourite lines came when he was found sitting under a tree studying a cobweb when he should be getting ready for Parliament. He mutters something about God, to which his companion replies;

"You found God, Sir?"

"I think he found me; do you have any idea how inconvenient that is?"
