From now on when people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, I planned to say, Amnesiac.

The body knows things a long time before the mind catches up to them. I was wondering what my body knew that I didn't.

People can start out one way, and by the time life gets through with them they end up completely different.

You forgive what you can, when you can. That's all you can do.To forgive does not mean overlooking the offense and pretending it never happened. Forgiveness means releasing our rage and our need to retaliate, no longer dwelling on the offense, the offender, and the suffering, and rising to a higher love. It is an act of letting go so that we ourselves can go on.

Were all yearning for a wedge of sky, aren't we? I suspect God plants these yearnings in us so we'll at least try and change the course of things. We must try, that's all.

You think you want to know something, and then once you do, all you can think about is erasing it from your mind.

The only wrong thing, perhaps, is permanently hesitating on the verge of courage.
