• If you think of exercise as a 60-minute commitment 3 times a week at the gym, you're missing the point completely.

• Only rarely do we see beyond the needs of humanity, and he linked this blindness to our Christian and humanist infrastructure.

• She's different from the girls I'm used to dating. She doesn't get tired of my stories and jokes or expect me to start reading her mind. She doesn't want me to dress better or put highlights in my hair or serious up. I'm not a lifestyle accessory to her. I'm a necessity. I'm the guy that's going to crack open her cocoon. She doesn't need to change me - she needs me to change her. At least until her little butterfly wings get strong enough to fly away.
