"You dance inside my chest,where no one sees you,but sometimes I do, and thatsight becomes this art."

"Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you."

"Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder. Help someone's soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd."

"This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet."

"This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet."

"I know you're tired but come, this is the way."
