“What is written is merely the dregs of experience.”

“We know that attention acts as a lightning rod. Merely by concentrating on something one causes endless analogies to collect around it, even penetrate the boundaries of the subject itself: an experience that we call coincidence, serendipity – the terminology is extensive. My experience has been that in these circular travels what is really significant surrounds a central absence, an absence that, paradoxically, is the text being written or to be written.”

“The words of the Lord are written in the word around us. Merely be attentive to what happens in your life and you will discover where.”

“Life is not merely a experience! It is a experience to be experienced.”

“Life is a blank book. Write about what you want to see happen and then step back – and experience what you’ve written.”

“Everything that is written merely to please the author is worthless.”
