dear god, whose name i do not know. thank you for my life. i forgot... how BIG... thank you. thank you for my life.

Whatever you do in terms of telling a story, the most important thing that you can define is who you are.

I have doubts! I have such doubts!

If I could, Sister James, I would certainly choose to live in innocence. But innocence can only be wisdom in a world without evil. Situations arise and we are confronted with wrongdoing and the need to act.

I think that certainty is a closed door, It's the end of the conversation. Doubt is an open door.

Doubt requires more courage than conviction does, and more energy; because conviction is a resting place and doubt is infinite – it is a passionate exercise. You may come out of my play uncertain. You may want to be sure. Look down on that feeling. We’ve got to learn to live with a full measure of uncertainty. There is no last word. That’s the silence under the chatter of our time.

There are people who...tell you that the light in your heart is a weakness. Don't believe it! It's an old tactic of cruel people to kill kindness in the name of virtue.
