They're a good family...One can tell a great deal around a dinner table...I think the closest we ever come in this naughty world to realizing unity in diversity is around a family table. I felt it at their table, the wholeness of the family unit, freely able to expand to include friends, to include me even through Austin's and my suspicions of each other, and yet each person in that unit complete, individual, unique, valued.

there are powers of love in the universe, and as long as you respond with love, they'll help you.

Love. That's what makes persons know who they are. You're full of love, Meg, but you don't know how to stay within it when it's not easy.

Love can't be pinned down by a definition, and it certainly can't be proved, any more than anything else important in life can be proved. Love is people, is a person. A friend of ours, Hugh Bishop of Mirfield, says in one of his books: Love is not an emotion. It is a policy. Those words have often helped me when all my feelings were unlovely.

Much of your happiness and joy in life will come from your ability to get along with people —but more importantly your decision to walk in love every day.

The level of happiness you experience through your interactions depends on the quality of your walk in love.

Love is revealed progressively.

Walk in love and you will appreciate people for who they are.

The giving of love and understanding is an education in itself.
