If your child is more important than your vision of your child, life becomes easier.

Unschooling is creating an environment in which children can learn easily and naturally all the time.

Stop thinking schoolishly. Stop acting teacherishly. Stop talking about learning as though it's separate from life.

School kids don't know the world is a million times bigger than school's version of it.

For those orderly folks who have life all neatly arranged in their heads, who do more accepting than questioning, unschooling is a disturbing thing.

Given a rich environment, learning becomes like the air—it’s in and around us.

People learn by playing, thinking and amazing themselves. They learn while they're laughing at something surprising, and they learn while they're wondering "What the heck is this!?"

The unexamined life is not worth living.

Do not allow your life to just fly out of your own hands. Do not allow your life to just disappear into some abstract mirage.

Your soul is a precious gift from an imaginative loving Source that endlessly breathes life.

Storytelling is the distinctly human implement designed to synthesize our purposeful interaction with reality.

I'm a very early riser, and I don't like to miss that beautiful early morning light.

I’ve never taken time off from being an actor. This is the kind of career I’d be so happy to do until I die. I always joke to myself that I want to have a postmortem Academy Award Nomination.

Failures, repeated failures, are sign-posts on the road to achievement. The only time you don't want to fail is the last time you try something (and it works).

You do not stop losing power by refusing to recognize your fear, by anesthetizing yourself to what you feel. The road to authentic power is always through what you feel through your heart.

You don't fix the problem until you define it.

The body remembers what your mind forgets.
