Conflict can be seen as a gift of energy, in which neither side loses and a new dance is created.

The quality of our lives depends not on whether or not we have conflicts, but on how we respond to them.

Instead of seeing the rug being pulled from under us, we can learn to dance on the shifting carpet.

Being willing to change allows you to move from a point of view to a viewing point - a higher, more expansive place, from which you can see both sides.

Embracing conflict can become a joy when we know that irritation and frustration can lead to growth and fascination.

Change does not take time - it takes commitment.

Our lives are not dependent on whether or not we have conflict. It is what we do with conflict that makes the difference.

Conflict isn't negative, it just is.

It is very difficult to apply the old Indian adage 'Do not judge another until you have walked a mile in his moccasins,' unless you get out of your own moccasins first.

When conflict becomes a win-lose contest in our minds, we immediately try to win.

It is hard to change our point of view in a conflict. Most often, it is because we are not nearly as interested in resolving the conflict and possibly creating a new "pearl" as we are in being right.

The sage wears clothes of coarse cloth but carries jewels in his bosom; He knows himself but does not display himself; He loves himself but does not hold himself in high esteem.

We should remember it wasn't so long ago that confidence in New York was in short supply.

For, as I suppose, no man in this world hath lived better than I have done, to achieve that I have done.
