I don't have a single plan for my life more important than learning to love people well.

Sometimes the break in your heart is like the hole in the flute. Sometimes it’s the place where the music comes through.

But when I thought I hit bottom, it started hitting back.

I would kiss you in the middle of the ocean during a lightning storm cuz I'd rather be left for dead than wondering what thunder sounds like.

...And for every day you paint the war, take a week and paint the beauty, the color, the shape of the landscape you’re marching towards. Everyone knows what you’re against; show them what you’re for.

I know you think this world is too dark to even dream in color, but I’ve seen flowers bloom at midnight. I’ve seen kites fly in gray skies and they were real close to looking like the sunrise, and sometime it takes the most wounded wings the most broken things to notice how strong the breeze is, how precious the flight.

I could never trust anyone who's well adjusted to a sick society.
