NatalieDon't say you love somebody and then change your mind ... Love isn't like picking what movie you want to watch.
NatalieFriendship is a priceless gift, that cannot be bought or sold. But it's value is far greater than a mountain made of gold. For gold is cold and lifeless, it can neither see nor hear. And in time of trouble, it is powerless to cheer. So when you ask God for a gift, be thankful if he sends not diamonds, pearls or riches, but the love of real true friends.
NatalieWriters are great lovers. They fall in love with other writers. That's how they learn to write.

NatalieIn a sense, evolution adheres to the classic twelve-step program: it takes things one day at a time. It does not strive for perfection; it does not strive at all. There is no progress, no plans, no scala natura, or scale of nature, that ranks organisms from lowly to superior, primitive to advanced.
NatalieHave you murdered anyone in the last day, week, month, year, decade? Probably not. Then don't worry about it. Give yourself a break. You're probably a really fine person.
NatalieOur minds hurtled outward in all directions. We became absurdly creative, Homo artifactus, intolerant of bare cave walls and naked clay pots.
NatalieYou learn so much from competition you gain confidence every time you have to step up and perform
NatalieWe may love men and we may live with men, but some of them have said stupendously inaccurate things about us, our bodies, and our psyches.
