Likewise the spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words.

It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.

Magic exists. Who can doubt it, when there are rainbows and wildflowers, the music of the wind and the silence of the stars? Anyone who has loved has been touched by magic. It is such a simple and such an extraordinary part of the lives we live.
-Nora Roberts
Making a different mistake every day is not only acceptable, it is the definition of progress.
