“It is only after we have integrated the dark side of the moon into our world view that we can begin to talk seriously of universal culture.”

“Only if we are secure in our beliefs can we see the comical side of the universe.”

“The only thing we have in this world that is utterly and intrinsically ours is our integrity.”

“We can know that in the beginning there was God and not just some cosmic upheaval that brought light out of darkness only when we have experienced him doing the same thing in our lives, our world--bringing light out of our darkness”

“We are all like the bright moon, we still have our darker side.”

“People of different religions and cultures live side by side in almost every part of the world, and most of us have overlapping identities which unite us with very different groups. We can love what we are, without hating what – and who – we are not. We can thrive in our own tradition, even as we learn from others, and come to respect their teachings.”
