“I think of how emotions seem so magnified when you're a child.Joy is more all-encompassing, disappointments more crushing, hope morepalpable.”

“People disappoint you so often. I hardly knew how to react when they surpassed all your hopes.”

“How much can we ever know about the love and pain in another heart? How much can we hope to understand those who have suffered deeper anguish, greater deprivation, and more crushing disappointments than we ourselves have known?”

“It's a mystery to meWe have a greed with which we have agreedYou think you have to want more than you needUntil you have it all you won't be freeWhen you want more than you haveYou think you needAnd when you think more than you wantYour thoughts begin to bleedI think I need to find a bigger place'Cause when you have more than you thinkYou need more spaceSociety, you're a crazy breedI hope you're not lonely without meSociety, crazy and deepI hope you're not lonely without me”

“If we magnified blessings as much as we magnify disappointments, we would all be much happier.”

“Faith encompasses so much more than a denomination!”
