What I invite people to do is to look at their lives just the way that they have lived them. Not to change anything, and not to do positive thinking at all.

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.

A return on time surpasses all investments.

He wants to be grown-up. How different dreams can be! Nature will soon grant your wish.

Sometimes if you want to see a change for the better, you have to take things into your own hands.

In the sheltered simplicity of the first days after a baby is born, one sees again the magical closed circle, the miraculous sense of two people existing only for each other.

Persecutors are almost always former Victims.

I don't know anywhere where the people are hungrier for education than South Sudan.

I'm a cynical idealist.

Nothing that is worthwhile is ever easy.

See your misfortunes as blessings.

Someone had my number and they started text-stalking me. I've never replied to them. It was tempting to write back, but I resisted.
