“The soul is stronger than the ego. It lives to BE, and give. We are of one Light, illuminating ourselves and those whom we love.”

“Sometimes, we need to be strangers to ourselves. Then the hidden light in our soul will illuminate what we need to see.”

“There are no stronger fetters than those we forge for ourselves.”

“The only way we live beyond our lives is to connect and carve ourselves into the souls of those we love.”

“There is no pain equal to that which two lovers can inflict on one another... It is when we begin to hurt those whom we love that the guilt with which we are born becomes intolerable, and since all those whom we love intensely and continuously grow part of us, and since we hate ourselves in them, so we torture ourselves and them together.”

“Each one of us here today will at one time in our lives look upon a loved one who is in need and ask the same question: We are willing to help, Lord, but what, if anything, is needed? For it is true we can seldom help those closest to us. Either we don't know what part of ourselves to give or, more often than not, the part we have to give is not wanted. And so it is those we live with and should know who elude us. But we can still love them - we can love completely without complete understanding.”
