“Acceptance is right. Kindness is right. Love is right. I pray, right now, that we're moving into a kinder time when prejudice is overcome by understanding; when narrow-mindedness, and narrow-minded bigotry is overwhelmed by open-hearted empathy; when the pain of judgmentalism is replaced by the purity of love.”

“When we are being compassionate, we consider another's circumstance with love rather than judgement… To be compassionate is to move into the right here, right now with an open heart consciousness and a willingness to be supportive.”

“Here's what is truly at the heart of wholeheartedness: Worthy now, not if, not when, we're worthy of love and belonging now. Right this minute. As is.”

“When I was seventeen, I don't think I even knew what love was. But when it's right, it's right, and you just know it.”

“Meanwhile, life keeps moving forward. The truth is, there's no better time to be happy than right now. If not now, when?”

“This is what historians usually do, quibble about cause and effect when the point is, there are times when the world is in flux and the right voice in the right place can move the world. Thomas Paine and Ben Franklin, for instance. Bismark. Lenin.”

“It is not enough to be in the right place at the right time. You should also have an open mind at the right time.”

“You have to be in the right place at the right time and understand that and know when it is your time and how you react to it and how you respond to it.”

“There will be real happiness, peace of mind and balance, when living by heart and right-mindedly.”

“When its true, when it's right, love can give you the kind of joy that you can't get from any other experience.”
