The heart is just the heart; thoughts and feelings are just thoughts and feelings. Let things be just as they are.

If you let go a little you will have a little happiness. If you let go a lot you will have a lot of happiness. If you let go completely you will be free.

Happiness and suffering do not depend on being poor or rich, they depend on having the right or wrong understanding in our mind.

If you want a chicken to be a duck, and a duck to be a chicken, you will suffer.

All religions are like different cars all moving in the same direction. People who don't see it have no light in their hearts.

There are people who are born and die and never once are aware of their breath going in and out of their body. That's how far away they live from themselves

Letting go a little brings a little peace. Letting go a lot brings a lot of peace. Letting go completely brings complete peace.

Looking for peace is like looking for a turtle with a mustache: You won't be able to find it. But when your heart is ready, peace will come looking for you.

We practice to learn how to let go, not how to increase our holding on to things. Enlightenment appears when you stop wanting anything.

Man will destroy what man fears!

Only the shallow know themselves.

Novels are a marathon, while comic scripts are a sprint.

It is the service we are not obliged to give that people value most.

Knowing reality means constructing systems of transformations that correspond, more or less adequately, to reality.

Man must be invented each day

Peace might sell, but who's buying?

Coaches are bridge builders. It's our job to build a bridge for our athletes to cross over.

The Soul is shriveled up and buried in a grave that does not love.
