There were so many levels to the unknown, from safe to dangerous to outright nebulous, scariest of all.

Don't think or judge, just listen.

There comes a time when the world gets quiet and the only thing left is your own heart. So you'd better learn the sound of it. Otherwise you'll never understand what it's saying.

Your actions is like a raindrop; it falls into the pond making ripples and then its over.

It's a lot easier to be lost than found. It's the reason we're always searching and rarely discovered--so many locks not enough keys.

Looking at the pond, all I could think was that it is an incredivle thing, how a whole world can rise from what seems like nothing at all.

If you didn't love him, this never would have happened. But you did. And accepting that love and everything that followed it is part of letting it go.

You should never be surprised when someone treats you with respect, you should expect it.

There is never a time or place for true love. It happens accidentally, in a heartbeat, in a single flashing, throbbing moment.

Nothing about me is "deep", but my divine creator is so.

Wealth, beauty, and fame are transient. When those are gone, little is left except the need to be useful.

I'm not an aging gracefully type. But I do believe in aging with grace.

There's many a good bit o' work done with a sad heart.

I never fall down. I always fight.

It is always a sad thing to understand those who once were obscured by the mystery and intangibility of the thoughtlessly loved.

There is a real comfort with the position of the victim, which can either result in true empathy or deep paranoia.

You can’t make a dog happy by forcibly wagging its tail. And you can’t change people’s minds by utterly refuting their arguments.

My ego only needs a good rhythm section

No wise man can have a contempt for the prejudices of others; and he should even stand in a certain awe of his own, as if they were aged parents and monitors. They may in the end prove wiser than he.
