There never was any heart truly great and generous, that was not also tender and compassionate.

This generous outpouring from such a distinguished and compassionate arts organization is truly reassuring and encouraging as we begin the transition from public to private funding to rebuild our arts and cultural network on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

Forcing people to be generous isn't humanitarian, effective, compassionate or moral. Only acts that are truly voluntary for all concerned can be truly compassionate.

I always entertain great hopes.

A poet never takes notes. You never take notes in a love affair.

Forgive me my nonsense, as I also forgive the nonsense of those that think they talk sense.
