"Today I bent the truth to be kind, and I have no regret, for I am far surer of what is kind than I am of what is true."

"Just when you thought you’d considered all the angles, life goes from a square to a cube. Love should also be 3D."

"Those who live as though God sets the rules are not going by their own rules. That is the self-sacrifice, or selflessness, that peace more often than not requires. Those who insist on going by their own rules cannot make that sacrifice. They are the steady adherents of (global) conflict because they are forever fighting both themselves and others to do whatever they think that they want to do."
