“I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.”

“One regret dear world,
that I am determined not to have when I am lying on my deathbed
is that I did not kiss you enough.”

“This sky where we live is no place to lose your wings
so love, love, love.”

“Ever since happiness heard your name,
it has been running through the streets trying to find you.”

“Remember for just one minute of the day,
it would be best to try looking upon yourself more as God does,
for She knows your true royal nature.”

“Good poetry ..
makes the universe
reveal its secret,”

Now 

That

All your worry

Has proved such an

Unlucrative

Business,

Why

Not

Find a better

Job.

Fear is the cheapest room in the house.

I would like to see you living

In better conditions.

“When no one is looking, 

I swallow deserts and clouds

and chew on mountains

knowing they are sweet bones!

When no one is looking

and I want to kiss God,

I just lift my own hand to my mouth.”

“I should not make any promises right now,
   
But I know if you
     
Pray
        
Somewhere in this world -
              
Something good will happen.”
