all the advice you ever gave your partner is for you to hear

I like to say understanding is the power.

No one has ever been able to control his thinking, although people may tell the story of how they have. I don't let go of my thoughts-I meet them with understanding. Then they let go of me.

I was full of rage. My self-esteem was so low that I actually slept on the floor every night, because I didn't believe I deserved a bed to sleep in.

Eating, drinking, and depression disorders are really thinking disorders.

I have discovered that in every language and every country I have visited, there are no new stories. They're all recycled. The same stressful thoughts arise in each mind one way or another, sooner or later.

I can't love you as you have been or will be. I can only love you as you are.
