Don't wait for a Guru. Your life is your Guru.

Love is what we are; we don't get it from somebody, we can't give it to anybody, we can't fall in it or fall out of it. Love is our true Being.

Devotion is a way of being, it's not something you do. It's dedication to finding awareness and Love. Chanting is like asanas for the mind and the heart.

We instantly believe everything we think. Isn't that insane? It's good for us to explore the depravity of our minds, so we know we are just as crazy as everyone else!

Unlimited inner strength can only be awakened when it is in the service of Love....When we align ourselves with that love and act in service of that love, anything is possible.

You cannot think your way out of a box made of thought.

Grace removes obstacles that we don’t even know are there. Grace is what arranges our lives so we are forced to look within.

Chanting just hits you and you want to be a part of it. That’s the point of this whole thing. That’s what cuts through all the ‘stuff’. You get lit up. You don’t have to know what it means.

Surrender happens by Grace. All we're doing is cleaning up the room so when Surrender walks in, He can sit down.

Bhakti yoga isn't something you join, it's love. It means falling in love.

The repetition of the holy names reveals a presence hidden within the heart. Something begins to happen that's very disturbing - we get happy.

God help the man who won't marry until he finds a perfect woman and God help him still more if he finds her.

I love working in New York theater.

I consider myself to be a genius who happens to play chess.

I was always the second heavy.

The better you putt, the bolder you play.

Some things we must pass over in silence.

I swear to the Lord, I still can't see, why Democracy means, everybody but me.

It's pointless to have a nice clean desk, because it means you're not doing anything.

I've always enjoyed reading history, particularly presidential biographies.

Love is an excuse to be stupid
