Love is a hero’s journey, and the hero’s journey is a noble but difficult path.

Our challenge is to not look away, but rather to transform the field; to create a new political conversation, our own conversation, out of which we can speak our truth in our own way.

We arrogantly assume that the nervous system doesn't really need to be coaxed into romance. That romance comes from some other place.

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

We can't look to the world to restore our worth; we're here to restore our worth to the world. The world outside us can reflect our glory, but it cannot create it. It cannot crown us. Only God can crown us, and he already has.

The change we are looking for is always a change within ourselves. And the change will come. I've noticed that as long as I'm willing to be different, something or someone arrives to show me how.

Creating the world we want is a much more subtle but more powerful mode of operation than destroying the one we don't want.
