the great spirit has made us what we are: it is not his will that we should be changed. if it was his will, he would let us know; if it was not his will, it would be wrong for us to attempt it, nor could we, by any art, change our nature.
what in your life is calling you?
when all the noise is silenced,
the meetings adjourned,
the lists laid aside,
and the wild iris blooms by itself
in the dark forest,
what still calls your soul?
in the silence between your heartbeats
lies a summons.
do you hear it?
name it, if you must,
or leave it forever nameless,
but why pretend it is not there?

you know it's love when you can't fall asleep because reality is better than your dreams.

do you want me to tell you something really subversive? love is everything it's cracked up to be. that's why people are so cynical about it...it really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. and the trouble is, if you don't risk everything, you risk even more.

whatever you want in life, other people are going to want, too. believe in yourself enough to accept the idea that you have an equal right to it.
diane sawyer
one has just to be oneself.
that's my basic message.
the moment you accept yourself
as you are,
all burdens,
all mountainous burdens,
simply disappear.
then life is a sheer joy,
a festival of lights.

then that little man in back there, he says women can't have as much rights as men, 'cause christ wasn't a woman! where did your christ come from? where did your christ come from? from god and a woman! man had nothing to do with him. if the first woman god ever made was strong enough to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be able to turn it back, and get it right side up again!

i guess i just prefer to see the dark side of things. the glass is always half empty. and cracked. and i just cut my lip on it. and chipped a tooth.

there are only two truly infinite things: the universe and stupidity. and i am unsure about the universe.

to say that conduct is immoral is to say little more than that the majority disapproves of it.

during the cold war everyone was pro-science. now lots of people are turning away from it and perhaps even taking an anti-science point of view. you know what i say to those people? fine. you don't get any. go live in a cave.
