“The whole Bible is the story of men and women trying to get back to God, to overcome that sin with sacrifices, good works, sermons, prophesy, witnessing, giving all kinds of things. It never worked.”

“Pain is the doorway to wisdom and to truth.”

“Feelings are like a color chart that God has given us.”

“If God is in a life, it doesn't have to be big to be happy and to be important in His kingdom.”

“Intimacy, as I am using it, is sharing my reality with you.”

“I am too old to think.”

“We religious controllers control in the name of Jesus and it is really painful to people.”

“Beneath all of these addictions is this disease, this control disease which is the mark of our society.”

“No gentleman ever discusses any relationship with a lady.”

“Then one day I read about a book that said that the church is the only army that shoots its wounded.”

“I am six feet tall. I am not supposed to be afraid.”

“A lot of us have jobs where we need to give people structure but that is different from controlling.”

“My only hope to receive love is to let you see who I am, then I may believe you.”

“I learned that the purpose of the Twelve Steps is to do the will of God.”

“I grew up and I became very successful at what I did as a young man. I became a work addict because this was the only way I could get any relief from this pain.”

“You are controlling because I want you to do it, not because of the situation or what needs to be done.”

“We live in a constant fear that our shortcomings will be exposed to family, to friends and to the world.”

“We are a nation of people who are afraid we are not enough.”

“There never was a social change in America without angry people at the heart.”

“We can't be intimate because we can't share feelings that we don't have.”
