Quotes
- “Laughter is carbonated holiness.”
- “The opposite of faith is not doubt, but certainty. Certainty is missing the point entirely. Faith includes noticing the mess, the emptiness and discomfort, and letting it be there until some light returns. Faith also means reaching deeply within, for the sense one was born with, the sense, for example, to go for a walk.”
- “Lighthouses don’t go running all over an island looking for boats to save; they just stand there shining.”
