ومن كانت منيته بأرض .. فليس يموت في أرض سواها !”

“مع الزمن, يتحول الالم الى حزن, و يتحول الحزن الى صمت, و يتحول الصمت الى وحدة ضخمة و شاسعة كالمحيطات المظلمة.”

“Life is suffering
Love is the desire to see unnecessary suffering ameliorated
Truth is the handmaiden of love
Dialogue is the pathway to truth
Humility is recognition of personal insufficiency and the willingness to learn
To learn is to die voluntarily and be born again, in great ways and small
So speech must be untrammeled
So that dialogue can take place
So that we can all humbly learn
So that truth can serve love
So that suffering can be ameliorated
So that we can all stumble forward to the Kingdom of God”
