A false faith is capable of terrible and monstrous things.

The person who loves their dream of community will destroy community, but the person who loves those around them will create community.

Fruit is always the miraculous, the created; it is never the result of willing, but always a growth. The fruit of the Spirit is a gift of God, and only He can produce it.

Give me love, give me peace on earth, give me light, give me life.

You’re always cursing, you’re always praying and you’re always making love. It ain’t do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do.

I have wisdom. I feel love. I live in the present and I try to present a dimension that brings harmony and healing.

With our love, we could save the world.

Our love will rule in this kingdom we have made.
