Years ago I heard the Indian Jesuit Raimundo Panikkar say: Expect Nothing.

I'm afraid my glass is no longer half full because I drank most of it.

To insist that I am not forgiven is a kind of inverse arrogance.

We all have the right to be wrong and be loved just the same.

Ideals are great as long as they don't get in the way of what we want to do.

Until we can sense a sacred quality in time we will not begin to have a fuller understanding of it.

I feel that the only true security I have is my capacity, however limited, to love.

I think that an act of love is immortal; once tendered, it can never really be taken back.

If there were no nobodies, The somebodies would not have anybody, To convince that they were somebody, Except some other somebody, Who would not be convinced anyway.

Before I can accept someone's help, I must accept their presence.

The man who says that he does not deserve his wife is probably right, but not for the reasons he thinks.

Everyone knows that God protects drunkards and lovers.

I want my lobster in bite-sized pieces! How dare you make me chew more than thrice?

I had to learn how to love myself and trust me it’s not the type of thing that happens over night.

I hate when I break my own rules. What’s the point of me being rational if I flail around like a clown?

Speculative fiction encompasses that which we could actually do. Sci-fi is that which we're probably not going to see.

The healing of ourselves as healers has to take place first

I have no phobias. Phobias are irrational. My fears are rational and CAREFULLY CULTIVATED, like roses.

I went - I had designed - in high school designed hundreds and hundreds of computers over and over and over, so I developed these skills without ever thinking I'd do it in life as job.
