More quotes by Donald Miller
We shouldn’t be afraid to embrace whimsy, that nagging idea that life could be magical it could be special if we were only willing to take a few risks.
Donald Miller
Today I wonder why it is God refers to Himself as 'Father' at all. This, to me, in light of the earthly representation of the role, seems a marketing mistake.
Donald Miller
I don't read a lot of inspirational books for life. But for writing, I think the two best books are The War of Art and William Zinsser's On Writing Well. I read a lot of classics.
Donald Miller
When I started studying the issue and issues related to fatherlessness, I realized I had all of them. Fear of intimacy, fear of commitment, poor work ethic, just stuff that you don't have when you don't have a man in your life to look you in the eye and say, You're good, or Good job.
Donald Miller
Passion about nothing is like pouring gasoline in a car without wheels. It isn't going to lead anybody anywhere.
Donald Miller
I had always suspected language was quite limited in its ability to communicate the intricate mysteries of truth.
Donald Miller
It is always the simple things that change our lives. And these things never happen when you are looking for them to happen. Life will reveal answers at the pace life wishes to do so. You feel like running, but life is on a stroll. This is how God does things.
Donald Miller
But the people who took the bus didn't experience the city as we experienced the city. The pain made the city more beautiful. The story made us different characters than we would have been if we had skipped the story and showed up at the ending an easier way.
Donald Miller
I think the things we want most in life, the things we think will set us free, are not the thing we need.
Donald Miller
If you don't feel free and be yourself, you can't connect. Find people who accept your quirks. They'll heal your soul.
Donald Miller
Good writers show rather than tell. Stories are told in action. Life stories are no different.
Donald Miller
The ambitions we have will become the stories we live.
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
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
Every day you live is a page. Every year, a chapter. Your life, a book. What is it about?
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.
Donald Miller
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. I want to teach our children how to get scary close, and more, how to be brave. I want to teach them that love is worth what it costs.
Donald Miller
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
Truth grew in my mind like a fungus, and though I tried to sleep it out, there was no resisting the epiphanies.
Donald Miller
Don't let go of your strength or your beauty. It was given to you by God.
