"No prayer is complete without presence."

-- Rumi

“I buy women shoes and they use them to walk away from me.”
“religion is about having the right answers, and some of their answers are right... but i am about the process that takes you to the living answer... it will change you from the inside. there are a lot of smart people who are able to say a lot of right things from their brain because they have been told what the right answers are, but they don't know me at all.”
“I can pretty much live without fast food. I haven't eaten McDonald's in so long, but it's okay.”
“Chasing after a guy who's not interested in you will rip the hell out of your self-respect. Better to face facts now because the longer you put it off, the harder it'll be.”
“I've always tried to make the strip animated, even when the characters aren't moving, with expressions or perspectives or some sort of exaggeration. There's great potential for that which has yet to be fully mined.”
“The path of those who preach love, and not hatred, is not easy. They often have to wear a crown of thorns.”
“We are runaway slaves from our own past, and only by turning to face the hounds can we find our freedom beyond them.”

“Everybody wants to be a professional baseball player and, sure, as a kid, I wanted to do that. But once I got cut from my high school team, I figured there wasn't much chance of that ever happening. I'm still in awe of it.”
