“A thought, even a possibility, can shatter and transform us.”

“the unexpected action of deep listening can create a space of transformation capable of shattering complacency and despair.”

“Nothing is written stone, child. Even if it were, the stones can be shattered”

“Love can transform us. It can be a healing force or a disaster, a tidal wave, a tornado. It can burn and scar us or heal our scars. It can be the ghost that haunts us, or the best friend who reads our every thought. Love may arrive like an angel of mercy, a fairy with raven wings or a hairy beast that will tear us apart limb from limb, kill and savor us down to the bones.”

“Human thought can literally transform the physical world .. we are the masters of our own universe”

“Nothing is stable in the realm of power, and even closest of friends can be transformed into the worst of enemies.”
