Whether [new Protestant church movements] place their emphasis on new worship styles, expressions of the Holy Spirit’s power, evangelism to seekers, or Bible teaching, these so-called new movements still operate out of the fallacious assumption tha...
When art is made new, we are made new with it. We have a sense of solidarity with our own time, and of psychic energies shared and redoubled, which is just about the most satisfying thing that life has to offer. 'If that is possible,' we say to ourse...
I say, 'Get me some poets as managers.' Poets are our original systems thinkers. They contemplate the world in which we live and feel obligated to interpret, and give expression to it in a way that makes the reader understand how that world runs. Poe...

He who loves the vase loves also what is inside.
Love is blind and thinks that others don't see either.
Love is a garden full of flowers and marriage is a field of stinging nettles.

Love can neither be bought or sold, its only price is love.
I love pain. Love pain.
Celebrate what you want to see more of.
