We don't think much about how our love stories will affect the world, but they do. Children learn what's worth living for and what's worth dying for by the stories they watch us live.

Nothing is going to change in congo until you and i figure out what is wrong with the person inside the mirror

And so I have come to understand that strength, inner strength, comes from receiving love as much as it comes from giving it.
Donald Miller
Fear isn’t only a guide to keep us safe it’s also a manipulative emotion that can trick us into living a boring life … the great stories go to those who don’t give in to fear.

If what you are doing is important, you will encounter resistance. If what you are doing isn't important it will be easy.
Donald Miller
I'm the kind of person who wants to present my most honest, authentic self to the world, so I hide backstage and rehearse honest and authentic lines until the curtain opens.
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 the trees are losing their leaves, and not one of them is worried.
