Life possesses an amazing array of profoundly sad faces.

First steps are always the hardest but until they are taken the notion of progress remains only a notion and not an achievement.

Rainbows introduce us to reflections of different beautiful possibilities so we never forget that pain and grief are not the final options in life.

If life is a birthday cake let my face be smeared with its icing of cognac and kindness.

Souls reconstructed with faith transform agony into peace.

Dare to love yourself as if you were a rainbow with gold at both ends.

Oh what a wonderful soul so bright inside you. Got power to heal the sun’s broken heart, power to restore the moon’s vision too.

Shine your soul with the same egoless humility as the rainbow and no matter where you go in this world or the next, love will find you, attend you, and bless you.

Innovating economies expand and develop. Economies that do not add new kinds of goods and services, but continue only to repeat old work, do not expand much nor do they, by definition, develop.

When you are working on a script, the story itself is not difficult. You say this would happen and then this, resulting perhaps in this. And the dialogue you make as true as you can.
