God himself culminates in the present moment, and will never be more divine in the lapse of all the ages.

Don't try and fit your faith into your busy schedule, build your schedule around your faith.

Your faith is very important. I have done the math, and you are going to be dead a whole lot longer that you will be alive.

You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

I beg you to believe that life is not a process, it's a drama

Henceforth I flie not Death, nor would prolong   Life much, bent rather how I may be quit   Fairest and easiest of this combrous charge,   Which I must keep till my appointed day   Of rendring up. MICHAEL to him repli'd.     Nor love thy Life, nor hate; but what thou livst   Live well, how long or short permit to Heav'n:

Nor love thy life, nor hate; but what thou liv'st Live well, how long or short permit to Heaven.

But past who can recall, or don undoe? Not God Omnipotent, nor Fate

To be human is to be in the tense condition of a death-foreseeing, consciously libidinous animal. No other earthly creature suffers such a capacity for thought, such a complexity of envisioned but frustrated possibilities, such a troubling ability to question the tribal and biological imperatives.

Days, pale slices between nights, they blend, not exactly alike, transparencies so lightly tinted that only stacked all together do they darken to a fatal shade.

How many more, I must ask myself, such perfect ends of Augusts will I witness?
