Love... is the honoring of others in a way that grants them the grace of their own autonomy.

Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven's sake.

Dismiss whatever insults your own soul.

I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.

One shouldn't just hope to be treated well: one must insist on it.

Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say.

Only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live.

If you wake up and the day feels broken, just lean into the crack.

Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.

Only love can heal the wounds of the past.

I restore myself when I'm alone. A career is born in public — talent in privacy.

Take forgiveness slowly. Don't blame yourself for being slow. Peace will come.
