I'd think 'In a relationship we should never have his kind of fight.' Then instead of figuring out how to make it work I looked for a way to get out of it. The truth is you shouldn't be married if your that kind of person.

I always believed in God and Christ but I was in rebellion - trying to make my relationship with God fit into my life instead of making my life fit in with him. I was stubborn.

When we consistently suppress and distrust our intuitive knowingness looking instead for authority validation and approval from others we give our personal power away.

Instead of yelling and spanking which don't work anyway I believe in finding creative ways to keep their attention - turning things into a game for instance. And when they do something good positive reinforcement and praise.

Flexible working is not just for women with children. It is necessary at the other end of the scale. If people can move into part-time work instead of retirement then that will be a huge help. If people can fit their work around caring responsibilities for the elderly the disabled then again that's very positive.

Instead of hating I have chosen to forgive and spend all of my positive energy on changing the world.

Community organizing is all about building grassroots support. It's about identifying the people around you with whom you can create a common passionate cause. And it's about ignoring the conventional wisdom of company politics and instead playing the game by very different rules.

Politics it seems to me for years or all too long has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong.

Poetry seems to have been eliminated as a literary genre and installed instead as a kind of spiritual aerobic exercise - nobody need read it but anybody can do it.
