Opening Lines

I was joking with a friend on the weekend about opening lines for articles and books I could write. It came up because I made a statement that he latched on to. "That would be a great first line for a book!"

Here are a couple of "opening lines" that are bouncing around my head right now. Ideas I'm toying with...

"I was never good at acting, except in church."

"You could say I made a decision for Christ out of lazyness. It was the less labor intensive option."
