There is no story that is you or that leads to you. Every story leads away from you.

Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. You don't have to like it... it's just easier if you do.

Spare yourself from seeking love, approval, or appreciation-from anyone. And watch what happens in reality, just for fun.

Our job is unconditional love. The job of everyone else in our life is to push our buttons.

Stress is an alarm clock that lets you know you're attached to something not true for you.

Peace doesn't require two people; it requires only one. It has to be you. The problem begins and ends there.

Fear has only two causes: the thought of losing what you have or the thought of not getting what you want.

Pay close attention to the particular thoughts you use to deprive yourself of happiness.

If you want real control, drop the illusion of control; let life have you. It does anyway. You’re just telling yourself the story of how it doesn’t.

It's not your job to like me - it's mine

It's not the problem that causes our suffering; it's our thinking about the problem.

Life's best moments usually happen unplanned.

Ignorance shrinks minds

I have come to see the nonsense of trying to describe fine scenery.

Wow, so much of the way I've transacted my life... so much of the results that I'm happy about are because of what Daddy did.

Sin keeps a man from prayer, and prayer keeps a man from sin.

Truth ... is the sovereign good of human nature.

The state is not competent in artistic matters... When the state leaves us free, it will have carried out its duty.

I actually got stabbed at my friend's bachelor party. In real life.

I never have any clothes to go out in, because I always just buy for work. I don't know why. Habit.

'Saw' is a particularly popular film with 14-30 year olds, so I'll be at a playground and meet six or 10 skateboarders who just wanna talk about 'Saw.'
