Wiggle Room Quotes

“Rather than loitering around, day by day, some prefer to crawl out of the shadow of their squirrel cage and try badly to cuddle up to a brighter side of life by searching out some wiggle room to empower their feeble stance, expecting to eke out some soothing moments of relish and buoyancy in the wings of their expectant quest. ( "Loss of urban benchmarks" )”
― Erik Pevernagie

“For a while, I believed in and practiced principles from Buddhism and Hinduism. I liked the fact that they taught me about moderation but did not entirely dissuade me from drug use or hooking up. They gave me the freedom to live the life that I wanted to. If I wanted to try drugs occasionally, the wiggle room in these belief systems allowed me to do so. They empowered me to be who I wanted to be, while at the same time giving me religious rituals like meditation, balancing my chakras to fall back on, and karma to help me find a greater sense of purpose in things.”
― Michael J Heil, Pursued: God’s relentless pursuit and a drug addict’s journey to finding purpose
