• Heaven is on the other side of that feeling you get when you’re sitting on the couch and you get up and make a triple-decker sandwich. It’s on the other side of that, when you don’t make the sandwich. It’s about sacrifice... It’s about giving up the things that basically keep you from feeling. That’s what I believe, anyway. I’m always asking, "What am I going to give up next?" Because I want to feel.

• I’ve often said that I wish people could realize all their dreams and wealth and fame, so that they could see that it’s not where they’re gonna find their sense of completion.

My soul is not contained within the limits of my body, my body is contained within the limitlessness of my soul.

• You love the person for who they are, flaws and all. You can't help who you love, either.

While you're walking away, the other part of your brain is trying to gain control of your bodily functions. "Turn around! She's the one!"
