An effective lighting design is like a beautiful painting. Your medium is bringing someone to an emotional state he or she would not achieve at that moment without your art. This does not and can not happen by accident.

Side by side or miles apart, real friends are always close to the heart.

Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Give a man a poisoned fish, you feed him for the rest of his life.

Don't fear the enemy that attacks you, but the fake friend that hugs you.

Through humility, soul-searching, and prayerful contemplation we have gained a new understanding of certain dogmas. The church no longer believes in a literal hell where people suffer. This doctrine is incompatible with the infinite love of God. God is not a judge but a friend and a lover of humanity. God seeks not to condemn but only to embrace. Like the fable of Adam and Eve, we see hell as a literary device. Hell is merely a metaphor for the isolated soul, which like all souls ultimately will be united in love with God.

Keep talking about me behind my back, and watch God keep blessing me in front of your face.

Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.
