“Face the facts of being what you are, for that is what changes what you are.”

“When the facts change, I change my mind - what do you do, sir?”

“...what was important, what mattered, was not the fact of being afraid, but what you did, the choices you made, when you were afraid. And maybe that was something to do with being alive--or staying dead.”

“...what do all the objects in the world have in common if not the fact of being- and of being nothing but- the provisional permanence of certain changes.”

“Most of us were taught that God would love us if and when we change. In fact, God loves you so that you can change. What empowers change, what makes you desirous of change is the experience of love. It is that inherent experience of love that becomes the engine of change.”

“When you change what you believe, you change what you do... which changes what you get.”
