"One of the things I've realized is how portable God is. No really, He's everywhere!"

-- Tracee Ellis Ross

“To say that a person feels listened to means a lot more than just their ideas get heard. It's a sign of respect. It makes people feel valued.”

“The sky sinks in the morning, this fact has been insufficiently observed.”
“You see the natural progression of what happens when the executive gets power and then a new executive comes in. The new executive doesn't say, "Oh, man. The president has just got too much power. We're going to dial that back." No, they expand the power. It's like, "He didn't use it well, so I'm going to take more power and use it better because I'm a better guy and my values are better." Then you suddenly realize that the very people who were attacking GuantÃ¡namo prior to getting into office are now the people expanding an assassination program overseas.”

“It is the will to be grateful which constitutes gratitude.”
“How could I make a little book, when I have seen enough to make a dozen large books?”
