Free of who I was, free of presence, free of dangerous fear, hope, free of mountainous wanting.

Any wine will get you high. Judge like a king, and choose the purest, the ones unadulterated with fear, or some urgency about "what's needed."

Every moment I shape my destiny with a chisel - I am the carpenter of my own soul.

Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears; if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.

Journeys bring power and love back into you. If you can't go somewhere, move in the passageways of the self. They are like shafts of light, always changing, and you change when you explore them.

What I had thought of before as God, I met today in a human being.

He is a letter to everyone. You open it. It says, Live.
