Hope is some extraordinary spiritual grace that God gives us to control our fears, not to oust them.

Love and desire are the spirit's wings to great deeds.

I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life - and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.

Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind.

Of all human activities, man's listening to God is the supreme act of his reasoning and will.

Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.

A compliment is something like a kiss through a veil.

The power of imagination makes us infinite.

What great thing would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?

Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.
