"Woman is the light of God."

"Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life's search for love and wisdom."

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

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

"We come spinning out of nothingness, scattering stars like dust."
