When a relationship is right, it is no more possible to wake up and want out of the marriage than it is to wake up and stop believing in God. What is, is what is.

More quotes by Donald Miller
I think the best thing a person can do is to read through the Gospels in the Bible and really look at Jesus, because if a person does this, they will realize that the Jesus they learned about in Sunday school or the Jesus they hear jokes about or the skinny, Gandhi Jesus that exists in their imaginations isn't anything like the real Jesus at all.

Maybe life isn't meaningless...Maybe just YOUR life is meaningless
Donald Miller
It was a haunting feeling, the sort of sensation you get when you wonder whether you are two people, the other of which does things you can't explain, bad and terrible things.
Donald Miller
All this beauty exists so you and I can see His glory, His artwork. It's like an invitation to worship Him, to know Him.

The mountains themselves call us into greater stories.
Donald Miller
We don't naturally want to take responsibility for our lives. We want to give the responsibility to someone else. We blame them when our lives aren't good.

...she wanted God to make sense. He doesn't. He will make no more sense to me than I will make sense to an ant.

Right, but you know, what would any of us lose by losing our possessions. Maybe we would gain something, like relationships, like the beauty of good friends, intimacy, you know what I mean, man? Like we wouldn't be losing anything if we lost our stuff, we'd be gaining everything.
Donald Miller
Earthly love… is temporal and slight so that is has to be given again and again in order for us to feel any sense of security but God’s love, God’s voice and presence, would instill our souls with such affirmation we would need nothing more and would cause us to love other people so much we would be willing to die for them.
Donald Miller
It wasn't necessary to win for the story to be great, it was only necessary to sacrifice everything.
Donald Miller
I took William Zinsser's advice that you write to yourself and you hope that there are people out there who are like you.
Donald Miller
The real voice is stiller and smaller and seems to know, without confusion, the difference between right and wrong and the subtle delineation between the beautiful and profane. It's not an agitated voice, but ever patient as though it approves a million false starts. The voice I am talking about is a deep water of calming wisdom.
Donald Miller
Sometimes you have to watch somebody love something before you can love it yourself.
Donald Miller
Meaning is something we experience more than we attain. It's like finding a nice, easy current in a river that carries you through life.
Donald Miller
Most great art is freedom within form. Without form, we are amateurs, without freedom, we are robots.
Donald Miller
Job found contentment and even joy, outside the context of comfort, health or stability. He understood the story was not about him, and he cared more about the story then he did about himself.
Donald Miller
I love writing books - I really do. If I could just quit everything and work on a book every day, I would love that most.
Donald Miller
I think if you like somebody you have to tell them. It might be embarrassing to say it, but you will never regret stepping up. I know from personal experience, however, that you should not keep telling a girl that you like her after she tells you she isn't into it. You should not keep riding your bike by her house either.
