Everything I’ve ever done that’s valuable is something I was terrified to try.

Love is a tenacious adventure.

Only love can heal the wounds of the past.

Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.

Happiness is not made by what we own. It is what we share.

The transformation of the heart is a wondrous thing, no matter how you land there.

There is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.

What a lovely surprise to finally discover how unlonely being alone can be.

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

All art is autobiographical; the pearl is the oyster’s autobiography.

Optimism is a happiness magnet.

The struggle, like life itself, should be joyful.
