“We have all faced enough suffering and disappointment to be fully justified in giving up on our world and the people in it. But the sun rises each day, no matter what happened the night before. Something causes us to wake up every morning and start the day anew. And some part of our hearts wants to love. So I place my faith not in a systematic analysis of the data—which, frankly, can be pretty sobering. I place my faith, strange as this may sound, in love. Because I think that our love gives us a power, and a vitality, that changes the whole conversation. And where there is love, there is willingness to live again—and to take action on what now truly matters to us.” — Ocean Robbins
