"I take positives out of negatives all the time."

-- David Wright

“In order to seek one's own direction, one must simplify the mechanics of ordinary, everyday life.”
“Live on coffee and flowers. Try not to worry what the weather will be.”
“Homemade' sounds much better when not referring to tattoos.”
“Prayer is, for me, like that - a state of being together with God. It's not usually triggered by liturgy or special needs. It's more like what the Bible instructs us to do: Pray without ceasing.”
“Better a man honor his profession than be honored by it.”
“Most human organizations that fall short of their goals do so not because of stupidity or faulty doctrines, but because of internal decay and rigidification.”
“About the same time, I realized that it was suddenly going away from me and there I was, running at about 300 miles per hour. I tracked it for a little way, and then all of a sudden the damn thing just took off. It pulled about a 45 degree climbing turn and accelerated and just flat disappeared.”
“Eternity! How know we but we stand On the precipitous and crumbling verge Of Time e'en now, Eternity below?”
