You can live your life out of a circumstance or you can live your life out of a vision.

The world loves us when we choose to love the world.

There is a current mythology in our culture that anytime we meet someone and have that "enchanted evening" experience, that experience of looking into the eyes of the other and falling hopelessly in love - that this is nothing more than a delusion; a mutual projection, a fantasy that will only last until reality sets in.

Anything having to do with what is happening inside people has political significance to me. That is why I like the term "holistic politics."

I have hope, because I believe in miracles.

We don't ask God for too much; in fact, we ask for too little. Turn to Him for everything. Give everything to God.

To me, hope is a moral imperative. I have hope and faith in forces unseen.
