Perhaps when we find ourselves wanting everything, it is because we are dangerously close to wanting nothing.

I talk to God but the sky is empty.

---

I like people too much or not at all. I've got to go down deep, to fall into people, to really know them.

---

I felt very still and empty, the way the eye of a tornado must feel, moving dully along in the middle of the surrounding hullabaloo.

---

I took a deep breath and listened to the old brag of my heart. I am, I am, I am.

---

Is there no way out of the mind?

---

let me live, love, and say it well in good sentences

---

I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my eyes and all is born again.

---

I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between.

---

I desire the things that will destroy me in the end.
