The way of the mind is to study many things; the way of the Beingness is to focus on one thing.

Don't remind the world that it is sick and troubled. Remind it that it is beautiful and free.

No thought has any power. You have power. And when you identify and believe in the thought you give power to the thought.

At the end of the day, you can have something in your head, something in your hand, or something in your heart. What are you choosing?

All the ups and downs are grace in different wrappings, sent to refine consciousness. Say thanks to them all.

Who reminds you to breathe and to beat your heart? Something is there, taking care.

The greatest healing would be to wake up from what we are not.

You need nothing to be happy - you need something to be sad.

If you seek approval from others in this world, you will not know happiness.

If you do not trust life to unfold, the mind takes over and it becomes a game of strategy, motivated by anxiety. This mistrust is unfair. Life has given us so much, and yet we do not trust it.

If I could give you only one advice, I would say: Don't identify with anything. Be completely empty - no one. Be no-body and see if you lose anything but delusion.

Sensible motivation is always effective.

All matters being spiritual

A tense account of the perils facing those who sought freedom in the lead-up to the Civil War.

How far can a person go... and still live with himself.

I never forget those who do me a favor, and I never forget those who don't!

A tree that can fill the span of a man's arms grows from a downy tip; A terrace nine stories high rises from level earth; A journey of a thousand miles starts from beneath one's feet.

Every great painting is left incomplete at the point where its completion is obvious.

It is much easier to find fault with others, than to be faultless ourselves.

I tend to think of myself as a one-man wolf pack.
