“But any gathering of eight human beings has an astounding potential for complication.”

“That my complicated life could be made so simple was astounding.”

“I believe each human being has the potential to change, to transform one’s own attitude, no matter how difficult the situation.”

“To get our universe, with all of its potential for complexities or any kind of potential for any kind of life-form, everything has to be precisely defined on this knife edge of improbability…. [Y]ou have to see the hands of a creator who set the parameters to be just so because the creator was interested in something a little more complicated than random particles.”

“It is the creative potential itself in human beings that is the image of God.”

“Every day, people settle for less than they desearve. They are only parially living or at best living a partial life. Every human being has the potential for greatness.”
