“When you begin to touch your heart or let your heart be touched, you begin to discover that it's bottomless, that it doesn't have any resolution, that this heart is huge, vast, and limitless. You begin to discover how much warmth and gentleness is there, as well as how much space.”

“You are the end, and the beginning....When I die, my only regret will be that you couldnever reside in my heart to hear how it singswhen you touch me.”

“I realized a long time ago, with a certain amazement, that no mattter how important something is in your life, no matter how huge it is, how much space it takes up in your heart and in your thoughts, unless you mention it to other people, they have no idea it exists.”

“How far is too far? When you love a band so much that its songs fill the empty spaces inside your head and heart, is that too far?”

“it is only when you have mastered the art of loving yourself that you can truly love others. it's only when you have opened your own heart that you can touch the hearts of others. when you feel centered and alive, you are in much better position to be a better person.”

“as you begin to eliminate your need for perfection in all areas of your life, you'll begin to discover the perfection in life itself”
