“I always feel uncomfortable when people speak about ordinary mortals because I've never met an ordinary man, woman or child.”

“Though my body gets older, I still commune with the child inside.”

“In this time I saw a body lying on the earth, which body shewed heavy and horrible, without shape and form, as it were a swollen quag of stinking mire. And suddenly out of this body sprang a full fair creature, a little Child, fully shapen and formed, nimble and lively, whiter than lily; which swiftly glided up into heaven. And the swollenness of the body betokeneth great wretchedness of our deadly flesh, and the littleness of the Child betokeneth the cleanness of purity in the soul. And methought: With this body abideth no fairness of this Child, and on this Child dwelleth no foulness of this body.”

“I never yell at kids. I just hug them hard and threaten them not to do something again. I would never be aggressive with a woman or a little child. I would rather die before I raise hand on a little kid or a lady.”

“Within the child lies the fate of the future.”

“I once loved a woman, a child I am told
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul.”
