Seek patience and passion in equal amounts. Patience alone will not build the temple. Passion alone will destroy its walls.

Growing up, I decided, a long time ago, I wouldn't accept any manmade differences between human beings, differences made at somebody else's insistence or someone else's whim or convenience.

I am the dream and the hope of the slave

We may act sophisticated and worldly but I believe we feel safest when we go inside ourselves and find home, a place where we belong and maybe the only place we really do.

I'm here, and I do my best to be completely centered at the place I'm at, then I go forward to the next place.

To make a difference is not a matter of accident...People CHOOSE to make a difference.

Bitterness is like cancer. It eats upon the host. But anger is like fire. It burns it all clean.
