“If you want to become that close to 'God', die instead.”

“But in dying so suddenly her mother had become a riddle at the gate instead of the road you walked to get there.”

“I want to die violently instead of fading out sentimentally.”

“To find the balance you want, this is what you must become. You must keep your feet grounded so firmly on the earth that it's like you have 4 legs instead of 2. That way, you can stay in the world. But you must stop looking at the world through your head. You must look through your heart, instead. That way, you will know God.”

“As you accept the responsibility to seek after truth with an open mind and a humble heart, you will become more tolerant of others, more open to listen, more prepared to understand, more inclined to build up instead of tearing down and you will be more willing to go where God wants you to go.”

“Draw close to GOD and GOD will draw close to you.”
