Someday you're gonna look back on this moment of your life as such a sweet time of grieving. You'll see that you were in mourning and your heart was broken, but your life was changing.

A true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

I've never seen any life transformation that didn't begin with the person in question finally getting tired of their own bullshit.

Tis' better to live your own life imperfectly than to imitate someone else's perfectly.

Stop wearing your wishbone where your backbone ought to be.

I'm choosing happiness over suffering, I know I am. I'm making space for the unknown future to fill up my life with yet-to-come surprises.

This is a good sign, having a broken heart. It means we have tried for something.

There's always another level up. There's always another ascension. More grace, more light, more generosity, more compassion, more to shed, more to grow.

You were given life; it is your duty (and also your entitlement as a human being) to find something beautiful within life, no matter how slight.

Never forget that once upon a time, in an unguarded moment, you recognized yourself as a friend.

If you're going to answer the call and you're going to transform and you're going to change, get ready. It is not a day at the beach.

Too many people out there tell us what we can and cannot do but…they don’t know who we are, what’s put in us.

Every reformation ruins somebody.

If you've got some news that you don't want to get noticed, put it out Friday afternoon 4:00 pm.

The old will disappear. Human level consciousness by itself can no longer resolve the complexities it has created.

As far as acting goes, you get to a certain point where I think everyone can do the job and it comes down to a level of commitment. I think sometimes all you have to do is show up.

I would be happy to play any roles.

I do love being solo because I can have more of my own creative input to every aspect of my career.

Anything worth doing, is worth doing all the way. Just know you'll have to live with all the choices that you make.

Toronto may be the only city where novels are integral to high art, the alternative scene and mainstream culture all at the same time.

In the confusion we stay with each other, happy to be together, speaking without uttering a single word.
