“We’re all created in the image and likeness of God, even when we don’t believe in God. That image is still within us. We should not be shocked that human beings suddenly have this phenomenon of an expression of the divine.”
“Our ability to handle the capacity of genius without the foundation of character is devastating for us.”
“The genius you need most is the genius of human connection of how to relate to other human beings.”
“Coming to know Jesus has made me smarter, has unlocked my mind, has opened my imagination, has changed the basic construct of who I would have been as a human being.”
