Quote from Hazrat Inayat Khan
We grown-up people think that we appreciate music, but if we realized the sense that an infant has brought with it of appreciating sound and rhythm, we would never boast of knowing music. The infant is music itself.

Quote from Jonathan Maberry, Dust & Decay
I’ve managed to stay alive out here in the Ruin because I’m a realist. I allow the truth to be the truth, no matter how much I might want it to be something else.

Quote from Karen Marie Moning
Words can be twisted into any shape. Promises can be made to lull the heart and seduce the soul. In the final analysis, words mean nothing. They are labels we give things in an effort to wrap our puny little brains around their underlying natures, when ninety-nine percent of the time the totality of the reality is an entirely different beast. The wisest man is the silent one. Examine his actions. Judge him by them.

Quote from Wesley Hill, Washed and Waiting: Reflections on Christian Faithfulness and Homosexuality
One of the most striking things about the New Testament teaching on homosexuality is that, right on the heels of the passages that condemn homosexual activity, there are, without exception, resounding affirmations of God’s extravagant mercy and redemption. God condemns homosexual behavior and amazingly, profligately, at great cost to himself, lavishes his love on homosexual persons.

Quote from Martin Luther King Jr., A Testament of Hope: The Essential Writings and Speeches
Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.
Quote from Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience
Contrary to what we usually believe, moments like these, the best moments in our lives, are not the passive, receptive, relaxing timesāalthough such experiences can also be enjoyable, if we have worked hard to attain them. The best moments usually occur when a personās body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile. Optimal experience is thus something that wemake happen. For a child, it could be placing with trembling fingers the last blockon a tower she has built, higher than any she has built so far; for a swimmer, it could be trying to beat his own record; for a violinist, mastering an intricate musical passage. For each person there are thousands of opportunities, challenges to expand ourselves.

Quote from Craig Ferguson, American on Purpose: The Improbable Adventures of an Unlikely Patriot
I think when you become a parent you go from being a star in the movie of your own life to the supporting player in the movie of someone else’s.
