Goodnight sweet prince, may flights of devils wing you to your rest.

I like to read things I've read before. It's like listening over and over to your favorite song.

I knelt and prayed, and the strongest truth came over me. Didn't matter if God in his heaven was a Catholic or a Protestant God, or the God of the Hindus. What mattered was something deeper and older and more powerful than any such image - it was a concept of goodness based upon the affirmation of life, the turning away from destruction, from the perverse, from man using and abusing man. It was the affirmation of the human and the natural.

Your love to others, and their love for you, that the increase of love in life itself around you, is what matters.

That was my nature - going from temptation after temptation, not to sin, but to be redeemed.

I think love can save the world. When we love, we completely recognize the value of the other.

The thing should have plot and character, beginning, middle and end. Arouse pity and then have a catharsis. Those were the best principles I was ever taught.
