More quotes by Donald Miller
I heard once that real love doesn't ask what is in it for me it just gives unconditionally. It just tries to take the weight out of somebody else's pack, lessen his load, and if it gets reciprocated, that's great, but that isn't what you did it for.
Donald Miller
I want to start replacing my “fix” response with an “enjoy” response and just let people be themselves.
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.

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.

It occurs to me it is not so much the aim of the devil to lure me with evil as it is to preoccupy me with the meaningless.

People are lonely. They want company and your book can provide them company and a little bit of hope. And there's nothing wrong with that.

The thing I loved about her was that I never felt like she was selling anything. She would talk to God as if she knew Him, as if she had talked to Him on the phone that day. She was never ashamed which is the thing with some Christians I had encountered.
Donald Miller
Most great art is created when the artist feels they are channeling something rather than trying to communicate something.
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
Truth grew in my mind like a fungus, and though I tried to sleep it out, there was no resisting the epiphanies.
Donald Miller
Nobody will listen to you unless they sense that you like them.
Donald Miller
I had always suspected language was quite limited in its ability to communicate the intricate mysteries of truth.
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.
Donald Miller
I think it's very hard for us, for Christians, to understand that it's okay to read a book, for instance, on how to manage your time. There's nothing wrong with that.
Donald Miller
The greatest stories go to those who don’t give in to fear.
Donald Miller
I love to give to charity, but I don't want to be charity. This is why I have so much trouble with grace.
Donald Miller
Flattery has a short battery life, but reminding people they are amazing and precious and wanted and works of art can truly change their lives.
Donald Miller
Without a positive male role model in your life it is extremely difficult to become a man who benefits his family and benefits society.
