If nonviolence is the law of our being, the future is with woman. Who can make a more effective a

It strengthens. It reminds us who we really are and why we’re really here. Love, more than anything else in this entire world, heals us.

There is a greater Christian faith than one which settles for the temporal happiness, and that is the augmentation of faith.

For me, trees have always been the most penetrating preachers. I revere them when they live in tribes and families, in forests and groves. And even more I revere them when they stand alone. They are like lonely persons. Not like hermits who have stolen away out of some weakness, but like great, solitary men, like Beethoven and Nietzsche.

I've always loved strong women, which is lucky for me because once you're over about twenty-five there is no other kind. Women blow my mind. The stuff that routinely gets done to them would make most men curl up and die, but women turn to steel and keep on coming. Any man who claims he's not into strong women is fooling himself mindless; he's into strong women who know how to pout prettily and put on baby voices, and who will end up keeping his balls in her makeup bags.
