“I love pressure. I love being on the edge of a cliff. Yahooi.”

“I love being Spanish as much as I love being Irish, and I really love being Irish.”

“I no longer think being in love is the polar opposite of being alone, however. I say that because I used to want to be in love again as I assumed this was the opposite of loneliness. I think being in love is an opposite of loneliness, but not the opposite. There are other things I now crave when I am lonely, like community, like friendship, like family. I think our society puts too much pressure on romantic love, and that is why so many romances fail. Romance can't possibly carry all that we want it to.”

“When you stand at the edge of the cliff, jump to fly, not to fall. ”

“Though I play at the edges of knowing,
truly I know
our part is not knowing,
but looking, and touching, and loving”

“If by chance I should find myself at risk of falling from this jagged cliff
I look below, and I look above
I'm surrounded by your boundless love”

“Go to the edge of the cliff and jump off. Build your wings on the way down.”

“And that was it. All this buildup to a great leap, and I didn't fall or fly. Instead I found myself back on the edge of the cliff, blinking, wondering if I'd ever jumped at all. It's not supposed to be like this.”

“It is at the edge of the
petal that love waits”

“I love making, I love doing. I love being to the full, I love everything which is not sitting and watching and copying and dead at heart.”
