Good friends don't let you do stupid things.
What happens is that people who are very religious but who are not in touch with reality, cannot be spiritual.
I'll tell you what pressure is. Pressure is a Messerschmitt up your arse. Playing cricket is not.
The way to love someone is to lightly run your finger over that person's soul until you find a crack, and then gently pour your love into that crack.
I am deeply a part of the problem for which Christ died.
A Christian marriage is [not] one with no problems or even a marriage with fewer problems. (It may well mean more problems. ) But it does mean a life in which two people are able to accept each other and love each other in the midst of problems and fears. It means a marriage in which selfish people can accept selfish people without constantly trying to change them -- and even accept themselves, because they realize personally that they have been accepted by Christ.
Memories must enter the bloodstream, must churn awhile through the heart's mill, must be crushed and polished, be nearly forgotten or cling like burs to other stories before they spill forth in purple patterns, shapes of small bones and worm rot, shapes of clouds and the spaces between leaves.

Man, do you think yours is the only soul? Look around you. Everything that you see quivers with being. Though your thoughts are free, one thing you do not think about: the whole. Beasts have a mind; respect it. Flowers too- look at one. Nature brought forth each petal. There is a mystery that sleeps in metal. Everything feels, and has power over you.
The more prepared I am, the better my future.
Of one thing there is no doubt: if Paris makes demands of the heart, then Munich makes demands of the stomach.
