You were one person, and you changed the world.

Tension of opposites.

So many times I feel I'm using the same words over and over, like a woman wearing the same dress every day. So boring!

Why are we embarassed by silence? What comfort do we find in all the noise?

The more you defend a lie, the angrier you become.

The truth is, part of me is every age. I’m a three-year-old, I’m a five-year-old, I’m a thirty-seven-year-old, I’m a fifty-year-old. I’ve been through all of them, and I know what it’s like. I delight in being a child when it’s appropriate to be a child. I delight in being a wise old man when it’s appropriate to be a wise old man. Think of all I can be! I am every age, up to my own.

Bad news has no limits. We often feel it should, like a rainstorm that can't possibly get any heavier. But a storm can always worsen, & the burdens of life can too.
