Soul Quotes
-
Your writing voice is the deepest possible reflection of who you are. The job of your voice is not to seduce or flatter or make well-shaped sentences. In your voice, your readers should be able to hear the contents of your mind, your heart, your soul.

When God has sent his angel to me, then I know of a surety. ... When God sends his angel to the soul it becomes the one who knows for sure.

So don't ever confuse wealth or fame with character.

Our voice resonates with life. Because this is so, it can touch the lives of others.
