Turn to the light. Don't fear the shadow it creates.

The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness cannot understand it

Prayer may just be the most powerful tool mankind has.” ~Blink

Where is God? Where can I find him?" we ask. We don't realize that's like a fish swimming frantically through the ocean in search OF the ocean

The four rules of writing... 1. Write to discover. 2. There is no greater discovery than love. 3. All love comes from the Creator. 4. Write what you will.

The world’s bumper sticker reads: Life sucks, and then you die. Perhaps Christian bumper stickers should read: Life sucks, but then you find hope and you can’t wait to die.

Adrenaline dulls reason; panic kills it.

The light came into the darkness, and the darkness did not understand it, but that no longer mattered because the light was now obliteration the darkness.

This will wreck you! Today, treat everyone you meet as if they're going to be dead by midnight. extend all the kindness and understanding you can, and do it with no thought of any reward.

In the end you will be your own undoing. You can't escape you.

No one can win every battle, but no man should fall without a struggle

Being alive is being a part of a dream and there is no dream outside the life!

There's still time for greatness

Every woman's path is difficult, and many mothers were as equipped to raise children as wire monkey mothers. I say that without judgment: It is, sadly, true. An unhealthy mother's love is withering.

I glance at the headlines just to kind of get a flavor for what's moving. I rarely read the stories, and get briefed by people who are probably read the news themselves.

I've never really had a favorite player, past or present.

Virtue is a habit of the mind, consistent with nature and moderation and reason.

Look at London or Paris: they're both filthy. You don't get that in Tokyo. The proud residents look after their city.

I really look with commiseration over the great body of my fellow citizens who, reading newspapers, live and die in the belief that they have known something of what has been passing in their times.
