The present is the only time in which any duty can be done or any grace received.

The man of faith, of energy, of warmth… steps in and does something.

To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest.

Only by not forgetting the past can we be the master of the future.

Work doesn't work without play.

Freedom is something that dies unless it’s used.

My heart is unlimited in the amount of love, but it is limited in the passion and commitment.

Mistakes are almost always of a sacred nature.

Love is a tenacious adventure.

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

I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.
