Eat Pray Love

"A soul mate sometimes enters our life as someone to stir us up. To hold up the mirror so that we can see ourselves more clearly and antagonize us and make us so uncomfortable that we have to change because we can't continue to look at the same thing because we're looking at it clearly now. This is the reason a soul mate may not last forever. The encounter is so intense and so clarifying that we burn through those things quickly."


-Richard from Texas (on Oprah)

Richard from Texas is one of my HEROs.

Love this quote, but for my money, his best line is about having your wishbone where your backbone ought to be.

My favorite Richard from Texas line is,

"She's fucking with you Groceries."
