“If you want to meet your fate in life you must start from where you are. You cannot start by first wanting to know your fate, for fate is not a rigid course from which there can be no deviation – it is instead a wondrous journey of possibilities; each possibility bringing its own challenges and knowledge.”

“You are the possibility, possession, and purpose of her life. You are the dance, song, and solitude of her mind.”

“Regardless of your faith, you can never escape uncertainty.”

“I am too much of a skeptic to deny the possibility of anything.”

“I don’t profess any religion; I don’t think it’s possible that there is a God; I have the greatest difficulty in understanding what is meant by the words ‘spiritual’ or ‘spirituality.'[Interview, The New Yorker, Dec. 26, 2005]”

“The thing the sixties did was to show us the possibilities and the responsibility that we all had. It wasn’t the answer. It just gave us a glimpse of the possibility.”

“It’s the possibility that keeps me going, not the guarantee.”

“You do not need to know precisely what is happening, or exactly where it is all going. What you need is to recognize the possibilities and challenges offered by the present moment, and to embrace them with courage, faith and hope.”

“I’m not saying that people can’t be happy or fulfilled on their own; of course they can. But being open to the possibility of love doesn’t make you weak; it actually makes you strong.”

“Imagination reveals the possibilities beyond the edges of our reality.”

“Before a child learns the limits of our narratives, they have more potential than we could ever imagine.”
