We have to keep asking ourselves: 'What does it all mean? What is God trying to tell us? How are we called to live in the midst of all this?' Without such questions our lives become numb and flat.

Pay attention to the people God puts in your path if you want to discern what God is up to in your life.

What makes us human is not our mind but our heart, not our ability to think but our ability to love.

For Jesus, there are no countries to be conquered, no ideologies to be imposed, no people to be dominated. There are only children, women and men to be loved.

You don't think your way into a new kind of living. You live your way into a new kind of thinking.

Dare to love and to be a real friend. The love you give and receive is a reality that will lead you closer and closer to God as well as those whom God has given you to love.

My whole life I have been complaining that my work was constantly interrupted, until I discovered that my interruptions were my work.

In a world so torn apart by rivalry, anger, and hatred, we have the privileged vocation to be living signs of a love that can bridge all divisions and heal all wounds.

The main question is not, how can we hide our wounds...but how can we put our woundedness in service to others.

O Lord, make this Lenten season different from the other ones. Let me find you again. Amen.

Those who keep speaking about the sun while walking under a cloudy sky are messengers of hope, the true saints of our day.

We rarely find answers in the distractions. But oh what possibilities live within the quiet of solitude.In my fear to be alone, I distracted myself away from the deep beauty of my own solitude.

I think I understand something about space. I think the job of a sculptor is spatial as much as it is to do with form.

One of the darkest evils of our world is surely the unteachable wildness of the Good.

I'm alive, happier than I've ever been, and I'm doing exactly what I want.

Talking to a drunk person was like talking to an extremely happy, severely brain-damaged three-year-old.

The Intentionality of the mind not only creates the possibility of meaning, but limits its forms.

I see too many men delay their exits with a sickly, slow reluctance to leave the stage. It's bad theater as well as bad living.

I became aware that all sounds can make meaningful language.

I’ve always felt that music should be a normal part of the experience that surrounds people.

We live in the postmodern world, where everything is possible and almost nothing is certain.
