Famous John Mark Green Quotes

“DUCK VISIT I visited some ducks today down by the riverside. They quickly waddled up to see what food I might provide. Some seeds for them and Brie for me, the ducks and I are snackers. Golly gee, it’s plain to see that I love cheese and quackers.”

Done with hiding and weary of lying, we'll reconcile without and within.

“When night has fallen so hard and you just can’t find your way, follow the sound of my voice back to the shelter of my arms. When the cruelty of this world blinds you to all your beauty, see yourself through my eyes and witness your magnificence. When your heart lies broken in a thousand shattered pieces, let me gather all of them up, and mend them with my love.”

“A Brief Awakening In the vastness of the out-rushing cosmos, you are but tiny—a warm and pulsing spark. Against all odds, your birth a brief awakening from silent eons spent sleeping in the dark. When you feel your heart swell with wild wonder at the dazzling diamond chandeliers of night, know your body was built from ancient stardust and the universe now sees through your eyes. So let the breath of sweet gratitude fill you, as the light of each new day begins. For this moment itself is a miracle, and to live it is your privilege my friend.”
