- "To make the right choices in life, you have to get in touch with your soul. To do this, you need to experience solitude, which most people are afraid of, because in the silence you hear the truth and know the solutions."
- "Religion is confining and imprisoning and toxic because it is based on ideology and dogma. But spirituality is redeeming and universal."
- "The spiritual meaning of love is measured by what it can do. Love is meant to heal. Love is meant to renew. Love is meant to bring us closer to God."
