Ignorance and power and pride are a deadly mixture, you know.

I'm good at doing the laundry. At least that. And it's a religious experience...Water, earth, fire-polarities of wet and dry, hot and cold, dirty and clean. The great cycles-round and round-beginning and end-Alpha and Omega, amen.

I wanted to be a citizen of the world but not in a superficial way.

Almost anything can be dealt with if people are of good will and light hearts and strong values.

For all my good intentions, there are days when things go wrong or I fall into old habits. When things are not going well, when I'm grumpy or mad, I'll realize that I've not been paying attention to my soul and I've not been following my best routine.

If you break your neck, if you have nothing to eat, if your house is on fire, then you got a problem. Everything else is inconvenience.

Ignorance and power and pride are a deadly mixture, you know.
