I know you've run away - everybody gets the urge to do that some time - but sooner or later you'll want to go home.

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

I tried to imagine a church that did not support its country's wars as a matter of patriotic course and instead stood against the devastation and suffering they caused in people's lives." (from 'The Dance of the Dissident Daughter'.)

If someone should ask me, 'What does the soul do?' I would say, It does two things. It loves. And it creates. Those are its primary acts.

It is the peculiar nature of the world to go on spinning no matter what sort of heartbreak is happening.

There is no place so AWAKE and ALIVE as the edge of becoming.
