Ego is a ghost who is terrified of dying

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.

Ignite the fire in your soul.

If we weren’t already doing it this way, is this the way we would start?

A plan is worthless unless you review it on a regular basis.

Imagine if fire extinguishers were fullof snow. Imagine the fun we could have.

The stories I'm interested in are challenging ones, and maybe that requires a little bit more of you. I love my job and I want to earn the right to do it every single day.

Most of the great directors I've worked with - De Palma, Spike Lee - like rehearsals.

Passion is a decision about how we will approach life, before it becomes a feeling!

I need you more than I need freedom.

I'm used to always deciding everything myself. It's a blessing, but also a terrible defect.

Miracles are everywhere to be found When I surrender my infinite desires To my immortal aspirations.
