Look what happens with a love like that, it lights up the whole sky""The words you speak become the house you live in""I am a hole in a flute that the Christ's breath moves through. Listen to this music""Laughter is the soul's way of saying, ‘I surrender to being alive.’""An awake heart is like a sky that pours light""What we speak becomes the house we live in""Fear is the cheapest room in the house. I would like to see you living in better conditions""The earth would die if the sun stopped kissing her""Stay close to anything that makes you glad you are alive""I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being"
