Experience is necessary for us to grow.

Always be open to new beginnings. To the universe, every moment is the start of the next big thing in your life.

We want spiritual principles to be more than beautiful abstractions; we want them to actually transform our lives.

I want to be a cheerleader for women who have never even considered running for office or being involved in a campaign, but who in the quietness of their hearts might think, 'Why not me?'

A holy relationship is where the brokenness and wounds of the world are not escaped so much as as transformed by love, not hidden from but risen above.

The historian Arthur Schlesinger has pointed out that people tend to get interested in politics again every 30 years. The universe moves in cycles of three. The number figures in everything from Pythagoras's theory that the universe is based on three to the Father-the-Son-and-the-Holy- Ghost to the three-sided pyramidal shapes that intersect in the Jewish Star of David. The notion of the mystical three, metaphysically, spiritually, and even politically, is quite interesting to me.

We are likely to feel better when we go to bed tonight if we have an internal sense that we spent our lives meaningfully today.
