Thieves Get Rich, Saints Get Shot, And God Don't Answer Prayers A Lot.

"I'd discovered, without knowing it, the difference between speaking and being. This is what listening is, true listening, the lonely but open mind...The soul's path is in the ear -- not in the mirror."

"For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me. And what I dreaded has happened to me."
- Job 3:25

"I am not at ease, nor am I quiet; I have no rest, for trouble comes."
- Job 3:26

Words stand between silence and silence: between the silence of things and the silence of our own being. Between the silence of the world and the silence of God.

When we have really met and known the world in silence, words do not separate us from the world nor form other men, nor from God, nor from ourselves because we no longer trust entirely in language to contain reality.

You are made in the image of what you desire.

The only thing I will ever miss, is the goldfish that I never got to meet.
