• We can all be angels to one another. We can choose to obey the still small stirring within, the little whisper that says, Go. Ask. Reach out. Be an answer to someone's plea. You have a part to play. Have faith.

• Why am I more cautious as I age instead of the other way around? I wonder if it's all tied in to failure. I tend to forget my gains and remember only the losses. The failures have piled up, wreaking havoc with my confidence until, as an adult, I've become afraid to take chances.

• We should, can and most of the time do communicate with God directly. To my knowledge, angels are not necessary for anything. But God's creation is abundant, and asking "Why angels?" would be like asking why there are thousands of varieties of trees or stars, when we could get along with so much less. God Himself told us many times that He was sending angels to love and care for us, so He is the one who brought them into our lives. Therefore, even if we don't understand their entire purpose, I vote that we pay attention to them.

• Si soy sincero, tengo que reconocer que las exigencias que estoy tan convencido de que proceden del mundo exterior proceden, de hecho, de esa parte de mí que siempre está inacabada: los tirones y los tirones que se originan en mi propia ambigüedad.

• ...muchos de nosotros inhibimos nuestra capacidad de crecimiento porque la cultura nos anima a vivir vidas de uniformidad. Bloqueamos, negamos, ignoramos la crisis resultante por confusión, malestar y, sí, incluso por decoro.
