• In my earliest of years, my mother was a huge force in my life. She was for all intents and purposes, a single parent. My father had abandoned us. He was an alcoholic and a physical abuser. My mother lived through that tyranny and made her living as a domestic worker. She was uneducated but she brought high principles and decent values into our existence, and she set lofty goals for herself and for her children. We were forever inspired by her strength and by her resistance to racism and to fascism.

• Invade me now, my ruthless friend,
  
  And make me cower in the dark.
  
  Remind me that I'm all alone
  
  And draw upon my face your mark.
  
  How is it that you capture me,
  
  When all my thoughts deny your force?
  
  Is it the reptile in my brain
  
  That lets your terror run its course?
  
  
  
  Baseless Fear undoes us all
  
  Despite our quest for lofty goals.
  
  We would-be Galahads don't die,
  
  Fear just freezes all our souls.
  
  It keeps us mute when feeling love,
  
  Reminding us what we might lose.
  
  And if by chance we meet success,
  
  Fear tells us which safe route to choose.

  Arthur C. Clarke

• When you first start out don't set yourself a lofty goal of sitting down to meditate for twenty minutes. Aim instead for ten minutes or even five minutes - utilizing those few moments when you find yourself willing or even desiring just to take a break from the daily grind to observe your mind rather than drifting off into daydreams.

• Padres sustitutos y otras figuras masculinas intervinieron para orientarme tras la muerte de mi padre. Empresarios me enseñaron a cumplir mis compromisos; otros me brindaron oportunidades que superaban mi imaginación. Autores y conferenciantes me dieron buenos y sólidos ejemplos de exigencia y metas elevadas; cristianos maduros y comprometidos me educaron e instruyeron.
