Quotes

• “I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge — That myth is more potent than history. I believe that dreams are more powerful than facts —That hope always triumphs over experience — That laughter is the only cure for grief. And I believe that love is stronger than death.”
• “The grass is not, in fact, always greener on the other side of the fence. No, not at all. Fences have nothing to do with it. The grass is greenest where it is watered. When crossing over fences, carry water with you and tend the grass wherever you may be.”
• “For all my good intentions, there are days when things go wrong or I fall into old habits. When things are not going well, when I'm grumpy or mad, I'll realize that I've not been paying attention to my soul and I've not been following my best routine.”
• “The older I get, the more I realize the importance of exercising the various dimensions of my body, soul, mind and heart. Taken together, these aspects give me a sense of wholeness. I want to be a whole human being rather than one who limps on one leg because I don't know how to use all of my parts. Intellectual, emotional, and physical activity are not separate entities. Rather, they are dimensions of the same human being.”
• “You want my opinion? We're all a little weird. And life is a little weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall into mutually satisfying weirdness — and call it love — true love.”
• “To insist on one's place in the scheme of things and to live up to that place.To empower others in their reaching for some place in the scheme of things. To do these things is to make fairy tales come true.”
