“No matter what religion people choose to live by, I came to realize that their choice is ultimately what is best for them.
The holy wars are what get us into trouble. If people minded their own business as far as religion is concerned and didn't get caught up in saving other people's souls, they just might be able to sace their own souls and bless those around them with their contagious state of euphoria. Indeed, the world needs more love.”
― Jenny McCarthy, Bad Habits

“I've come to think that's what heaven is- a place in the memory of others where our best selves live on.”
― Christina Baker Kline, Orphan Train

“If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.”

“Although she had resisted this knowledge all her life, had lived determinedly in the future focused there by ambition, she understood at last that this was the real condition of humanity: The dance of life occurred not yesterday or tomorrow, but only here at the still point that was the present. This truth is simmple, sel-evident, but difficult to accept, for we sentimentalize the past and wallow in it, while we endure the moment and in every waking hour dream of the future.”
― Dean Koontz, The Taking
