“Love is the only force that can erase the differences between people or bridge the chasms of bitterness.”

“Every creator painfully experiences the chasm between his inner vision and its ultimate expression. The chasm is never completely bridged. We all have the conviction, perhaps illusory, that we have much more to say than appears on the paper.”

“I suddenly felt entirely weak, unable, and inadequate to bridge the gap between myself and these men. Then I realized I didn't have to bridge that chasm. That wasn't my responsibility. My responsibility was simply to be there, and to trust that the Lord would use me, that He would bridge the distance.”

“In giving you are throwing a bridge across the chasm of your solitude.”

“The difference between bitter and better is I.”

“Art is the bridge across the gap between peoples and cultures. Writing is one of the arts that can help link people.”
