«Heroes take journeys, confront dragons, and discover the treasure of their true selves.»
«For men tied fast to the absolute, bled of their differences, drained of their dreams by authoritarian leeches until nothing but pulp is left, become a massive, sick Thing whose sheer weight is used ruthlessly by ambitious men. Here is the real enemy of the people: our own selves dehumanized into ''the masses.'' And where is the David who can slay this giant?»

«A soulmate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we?re pretending to be. Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person we?re safe in our own paradise. Our soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we?re two balloons, and together our direction is up, chances are we?ve found the right person. Our soulmate is the one who makes life come to life.»

«A vision is not just a picture of what could be; it is an appeal to our better selves, a call to become something more.»
«How soon country people forget. When they fall in love with a city it is forever, and it is like forever. As though there never was a time when they didn't love it. The minute they arrive at the train station or get off the ferry and glimpse the wide streets and the wasteful lamps lighting them, they know they are born for it. There, in a city, they are not so much new as themselves: their stronger, riskier selves.»

«Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.»
«And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.»
«For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, / Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, / Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; / Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.»

«Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates? / But I trust that ye shall know that we are not reprobates.»
