We become what we love. What we put first in our lives is what we receive from life.

“Each time that you don't know you are choosing, then of those choices you are not the chooser.”
“Learn to be one with who you are in Reality, and the waves of a thousand passing worlds cannot wash you away.”
“Psychologically speaking, what is true requires no protection, and never becomes negative when challenged. On the other hand, what is false almost never stops trying to protect itself, which it does by finding fault with whatever or whoever challenges the false image behind which it always hides.”
More on Love
“Speaking with kindness creates confidence, thinking with kindness creates profoundness, giving with kindness creates love.”
“Whatever you think people are withholding from you-praise, appreciation, assistance, loving care, and so on-give it to them.”
“There are many eyes that can detect and honor the prudent and household virtues; there are many that can discern Genius on his starry track, though the mob is incapable; but when that love which is all-suffering, all-abstaining, all-aspiring, which has vowed to itself, that it will be a wretch and also a fool in this world, sooner than soil its white hands by any compliances, comes into our streets and houses,--only the pure and aspiring can know its face, and the only compliment they can pay it, is to own it.”
More on Values
“The truest test of civilization, culture and dignity is character and not clothing.”
“I think your values are always influenced by your family and your community.”
“We're not going to deputize a whole bunch of American citizens to start grabbing people or turning them in, in part because the ordinary American citizen may not know whether or not this person is illegal or not. But, you know, the notion that we're going to criminalize priests, for example, or doctors who are providing services to individuals, and throw them in jail for doing what their calling asks them to do, which is to provide help and service to people in need, I think that is a mistake. I think that's out of America's character.”
