But mostly, our cut, our polish, the life we put into the stones, the beauty that we bring out is exceptional.

    One of the things I love so much about Valerie [Belin] is that she inhabits her body so completely. She has no self-consciousness about having stretch marks or having given birth.

    Religion is about God's truth, but none of us can grasp that truth absolutely, because of our own imperfections and limitations. We are only children of God, not God.
