"To see ourselves as we truly areâ€”a wisp of love itselfâ€”is perhaps our deepest fear. But it is also our greatest grace. If we are to be the new human, we must begin by embracing love, which always seeks to incarnate itself. Love is enfleshed everywhere. Everywhere the Holy One is shouting and whispering, â€˜Let me love you.â€™ And all that is asked of us is to receive. In reality, that is our lifeâ€™s work. Nothing more, and certainly nothing less."

“Any woman who is currently with a man is with him partly because she loves the way he smells. And if we haven't smelled you for a day or two and then we suddenly are within inches of you, we swoon. We get light-headed. It's intoxicating. It's heady.”
“A Wikipedia article is a process, not a product.”
“It may be true that the law cannot make a man love me, but it can keep him from lynching me, and I think that's pretty important.”
