“I am coming to terms with the fact that loving someone requires a leap of faith, and that a soft landing is never guaranteed.”

“I suppose love is never a sure thing, no matter what words are spoken. Love requires a leap of faith into the abyss, every time.”

“Ignorantly is how we all fall in love; for it is a kind of fall. Closing our eyes, we leap from that cliff in hope of a soft landing. Nor is it always soft; but still, without that leap nobody comes to life.”

“It is with this thought that many believers would call up Kierkegaard's famous phrase, the 'leap of faith,' pictured perhaps as a leap from here to there, leaving out the in-between... What is usually overlooked, however, is that Kierkegaard said nothing about a safe landing; there was only the leap, and no guarantee of solid ground beyond it.”

“But sometimes it's the things that require a leap of faith that we need to believe in most of all.”

“I can guarantee a haircut will never tell you anything about someone's gender, who they love, or how they fuck.”
