“Sorrow is how we learn to love. Your heart isn't breaking. It hurts because it's getting larger. The larger it gets, the more love it holds.”

“Suffering invites us to place our hurts in larger hands. In Christ we see God suffering – for us. And calling us to share in God’s suffering love for a hurting world. The small and even overpowering pains of our lives are intimately connected with the greater pains of Christ. Our daily sorrows are anchored in a greater sorrow and therefore a larger hope.”

“And so I learned that love is larger than the walls that shut it in”

“The basic fear with love is that love is larger than ourselves.”

“Let's not push it under the rug, or push it to the sidebecause, no matter what, it's going to keep coming up. Youknow, if you never deal with that dirt up under the carpet,it's going to get larger and larger, and it's going to keepcoming up.”

“As you grow up, and you’ll find this, you keep getting involved with larger and larger illusions that take longer and longer to fall away. The great hope is eventually to find a delusion that will outlast your life.”
