The choice to love is the choice to connect — to find ourselves in the other.

It isn't just talent. You have to have something else. You have to have a kind of nerve.

Love sought is good, but given unsought is better.

The simple act of paying attention can take you a long way.

In all our searching, the only thing we’ve found that makes the emptiness bearable is each other.

Words empowered by justice can never be silenced.

Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present.

You mustn't confuse a single failure with a final defeat.

Run to the rescue with love and peace will follow.

If you need something from somebody, always give that person a way to hand it to you.

Trifles make perfection, and perfection is no trifle.

To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.
