William P. Young
when I live in you, then together we can live through everything that happens to you.
William P. Young

William P. Young

William P. Young
Even though you can't finally grasp me, guess what? I still want to be known.
William P. Young
I am a verb. I am that I amNouns exist because there is a created universe and physical reality, but if the universe is only a mass of nouns, it is dead. Unless 'I am', there are no verbs, and verbs are what makes the universe alive
William P. Young
Transformation without work and pain, without suffering, without a sense of loss is just an illusion of true change.
William P. Young
