Prayer as focus is not a way of limiting what can be seen; it is a habit of attention brought to bear on all that is.
I don't write about what I know: I write in order to find out what I know.
Fundamentally, [prayer] is a position, a placement of oneself.
You can’t put much on paper before you betray your secret self, try as you will to keep things civil.
Refuse to write your life and you have no life.
The world is full of mystery but it must not be choked with secrets: we must talk to one another.
