Just to be is holy, just to live is a gift.

When you can't go forward, and you can't go backward, and you can't stay where you are without killing off something deep and vital in yourself, you are on the edge of creation.

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.

What matters is giving over to what you love.

T. Ray said 'Who do you think you are? Julias Shakespeare?' The man sincerely thought that was Shakespeare's first name, and if you think I should have corrected him, you are ignorant about the art of survival.

That's the sacred intent of life, of God--to move us continuously toward growth, toward recovering all that is lost and orphaned within us and restoring the divine image imprinted on our soul.

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