“We must take things as we find them in this world.”

“we must take care of our families wherever we find them.”

“Love is the only thing in the world worth having. You must never loose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us.”

“Spirituality is not to be learned by flight from the world, or by running away from things, or by turning solitary and going apart from the world. Rather, we must learn an inner solitude wherever or with whomsoever we may be. We must learn to penetrate things and find God there.”

“Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not.”

“Until we have met the monsters in ourselves, we keep trying to slay them in the outer world. And we find that we cannot. For all darkness in the world stems from darkness in the heart. And it is there that we must do our work.”
