Is suffering really necessary? Yes and no. If you had not suffered as you have, there would be no depth to you, no humility, no compassion.

The past has no power over the present moment.

The primary cause of unhappiness is never the situation but your thoughts about it.

When you become comfortable with uncertainty, infinite possibilities open up in your life.

When you complain, you make yourself a victim. Leave the situation, change the situation or accept it, all else is madness.

Stop looking outside for scraps of pleasure or fulfillment, for validation, security, or love - you have a treasure within that is infinitely greater than anything the world can offer.

When you live in complete acceptance of what is, that is the end of all drama in your life.

In today's rush we all think too much, seek too much, want too much and forget about the joy of just Being.

Observe your thoughts, don't believe them.

Some changes look negative on the surface but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something new to emerge.

You are not separate from the whole. You are one with the sun, the earth, the air. You don’t have a life. You are life.

Even things that are true can be proved.

Kill every enemy twice, Wilky said. Better than gettin' shot by a soldier pretending to be dead.

The only way to change the world is to quit thinking it's a job for Superman. Real power lies in your own hands.

Hard work alone won't guarantee success, but without hard work, I'll guarantee you won't have success.

Come in. And try not to murder any of my guests.

When I was at home, I felt loved and safe. My sisters were always a safe haven for me. I knew they would always play with me and make me feel like I was one of them.

Especially as an artist who has been signed to one of the majors throughout my last ten years, you don't always get to write your own music.

He was used to being playful with women, teasing while keeping ultimate control. With Luna, he felt like a berserk marauder. He couldn't even spell control, much less utilize it.

I've written a lot of music, so to be able to put that together and play some shows around the country and elsewhere - that would really be a fun thing to do.

There are those who labor in the darkness, that the rest of us might live in the light.
