At sea, I learned how little a person needs, not how much.
The heat of the bread burned into my skin, but I clutched it tighter, clinging to life.
It takes ten times as long to put yourself back together as it does to fall apart.
I wish I could freeze this moment, right here, right now and live in it forever.
If you had hope, maybe you could find a way to make things change,. Because if you thought about it, there were so many reasons to try.
Hope, it is the only thing stronger than fear. A little hope is effective, a lot of hope is dangerous.
What I need is the dandelion in the spring. The bright yellow that means rebirth instead of destruction. The promise that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That it can be good again.
I love the opportunity to tell the story about the characters through the music.
I think there's an awful lot of noise about the Church being persecuted but there is a more real issue that the conventional churches face - that the people who are really driving their revival and success believe in an old-time religion which, in my view, is incompatible with a modern, multi-ethnic, multicultural society.
I sort of feel like it comes around again. That when you get to a certain age, when you've lived enough and you've got your friends to support you and your family to support you, you wake up one morning and think, yeah, I'm okay.
You might slip, you might slide You might stumble and fall by the roadside But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down Remember you're walking up to heaven, don't let nobody turn you around
