“But there are things that happen between a man and a woman in the dark -- that sort of make everything else seem -- unimportant.”

“Death suddenly seemed unimportant and life seemed everything”

“I wrote about the rush of love, the changing of a woman into a mother—a process that happened without conscious thought, as if the heart knew what the mind and body took time to learn. Love is the one thing that matters. That makes everything else matter. That makes everything worthwhile.”

“Nothing that ever happens is so unimportant that it doesn't change things.”

“Outer relationships with a man or a woman are a mirror of the relationship between our own inner man and woman. Embracing our own inner man and woman means to understand the inner drama that happens between our male and female aspects, which manifests on the outside as relationships.”

“Love means to understand the drama that happens between the inner man and woman. It means to allow both the inner man and woman to find their creative roots and expression.”
