All human interactions are opportunities either to learn or to teach.

God wants us to become himself or herself or itself. We are growing toward Godhood. God is the goal of evolution.

The overall purpose of human communication is - or should be - reconciliation. It should ultimately serve to lower or remove the walls of misunderstanding which unduly separate us human beings, one from another.

Going into the unknown is invariably frightening, but we learn what is significantly new only through adventures.

All my life I used to wonder what I would become when I grew up. Then, about seven years ago, I realized that I was never going to grow up--that growing is an ever ongoing process.

I've had all kinds of experiences with God in terms of revelation through a still, small voice or dreams or coincidences.

Idealists are people who believe in the potential of human nature for transformation. . . . The most essential attribute of human nature is its mutability and freedom from instinct . . . it is always within our power to change our nature. So it is actually the idealists who are on the mark and the realists who are off base.
