I am a collector of words

Words feed me, free me, comfort, uplift and heal me. I've been saving my favorites in books, handwritten over the years and thought that perhaps in sharing them, not only am I preserving them for myself, but perhaps others may also find healing in them as I have.

Integrity

"Cowardice asks the question, ‘Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question, ‘Is it
politic?’ But conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’ And there
comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor
politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right." —

Religion and Politics

"I don't want to see any religious people in public office because they're
working for another boss."  Frank Zappa
