Spiritual identity means we are not what we do or what people say about us. And we are not what we have. We are the beloved daughters and sons of God.

Pay attention to the people God puts in your path if you want to discern what God is up to in your life.

I've been thinking about the record since I reached the fifty plateau. But you think about it and then you let it go because you can't waste many brain cells on hours thinking about it.

When you're as important as I am, getting your feelings hurt by me is almost an honor.

Frustration is one of the great things in art. Satisfaction is nothing.

Compassion directed toward oneself is true humility.
