• As soon as I start to write I'm very aware, I'm trying to be aware that a reader just might well pick up this poem, a stranger.

I will immediately stop and turn into a reader instead of a writer, and I'll read those lines as if I had never seen them before and as if I had never written them.

• I try to write a lot and my process is kind of back and forth. I procrastinate a lot so when I do sit down to write, I'm pretty lazy at it.

• When we no longer pray, no longer listen to the voice of love that speaks to us in the moment, our lives become absurd lives in which we are thrown back and forth between the past and the future.

Do they want to continue to plug the gap [in border security] that GAO has identified and recognize that there will be some costs to doing that?

• The history of the cosmos
  is the history of the struggle of becoming.
  When the dim flux of unformed life
  struggled, convulsed back and forth upon itself,
  and broke at last into light and dark
  came into existence as light,
  came into existence as cold shadow
  then every atom of the cosmos trembled with delight.
