“Gratitude is our most direct line to God and the angels. If we take the time, no matter how crazy and troubled we feel, we can find something to be thankful for.

“Maybe freedom really is nothing left to lose. You had it once in childhood, when it was okay to climb a tree, to paint a crazy picture and wipe out on your bike, to get hurt. The spirit of risk gradually takes its leave. It follows the wild cries of joy and pain down the wind, through the hedgerow, growing ever fainter. What was that sound? A dog barking far off? That was our life calling to us, the one that was vigorous and undefended and curious.” PainJoySpiritLeftSoundLosesHurtOur LivesGrowingRiskTreeCrazyChildhoodDogCryWindCallingOkayPaintCuriousClimbsBikeWipeVigorousJoy And PainHedgerows Author:Peter Heller

“There are studies that have shown that we make decisions, ethical and otherwise, based on the way we imagine ourselves as characters in the stories of our lives.

“Even though the press at times made me completely crazy as they followed me around the hall, and asked tough questions over and over again - now believe me, every politician feels this way - it is a necessary part of our life, and we must have a press that isn't cowed and won't be afraid of ratings if they get put to the back of the room at a press conference.” IfsWayFeelsBelieveMadeRoomsOur LivesCrazyPoliticianToughPressesHallsBelieve In MeConferencesRatingPress ConferencesTough Questions Author:Barbara Boxer
