“The great challenge facing us today is to learn once again how to talk to one another, not simply how to generate and consume information.”
“I never know what's going to happen in a novel. I don't have a plan or an outline.”
“But the healing place is within you. Healing is a gift you were granted at birth, just as you were granted others. Use your gifts, child. Use the beauty, the courage, the hope and the love that is in you. Call upon your strength. Use compassion and faith. Even during sad times joy is within you. Bring it forth. Wisdom is there to guide you. Use any one of your gifts and you will rouse the power of your healing place. Use all of them and you will sustain it.”
“It doesn't matter if you try and try and try again, and fail. It does matter if you try and fail, and fail to try again.”
