Refusing to accept God's love because we're unworthy - of course we're unworthy! - is another golden calf.

Le coeur a ses raisons que la raison ne connait point. French. Pascal. The heart has its reasons, whereof reason knows nothing.

In my dreams, I never have an age.

Following Christ has nothing to do with success as the world sees success. It has to do with love.

And I can't say it now. I can't say what I want to say. I hold you-- I-- I clutch you, because I love you so desperately, and time is so short, we have such a little time in which to live and be young, even at best, and I put my arms around you and hold you because I want to love you while I can and I want to know I'm loving you, only it doesn't mean anything because you aren't afraid. You aren't frightened so that you want to clutch it all while you can.

Wild nights are my glory!

Love is the one surprise.
