If we were to all sit in a circle and confess our sins, we would laugh at each other for lack of originality.

A minute moving among the patterns of beauty and the dreams of love is greater and more precious than an age filled with splendor granted by the weak to the strong.

You pray in your distress and in your need; would that you might also pray in the fullness of your joy and in your days of abundance.

My Soul gave me good counsel, teaching me to love what the people abhor and to show good will toward the one they hate. It showed me that Love is a property not of the lover but of the beloved.

It encompasses every being, slowly expanding to embrace all that ever will be.

Let passion fill your sails, but let reason be your rudder.
