Our mind is always subject to being distracted by thoughts of what happened in the past and ideas of what could happen in the future, but the living experience is what is happening NOW.

We suffer because we want life to be different from what it is. We suffer because we try to make pleasurable what is painful, to make solid what is fluid, to make permanent what is always changing.

Our power comes not from suppressing others but from uplifting them.

This is bravery: using the challenge of daily life to sharpen our mind and open our heart.

Whatever we do lays a seed in our deepest consciousness, and one day that seed will grow.

Movement is good for the body. Stillness is good for the mind.

If we do not appreciate the sensitivity and subtlety of the human heart, how can we appreciate the sensitivity and subtlety of the natural world?

The self-assured strength that grows from knowing that we already have what we need makes us gentle, because we are no longer desperate.

Like gravity, karma is so basic we often don't even notice it.

We humans have come to a crossroads in our history: we can either destroy the world or create a good future.

The most outrageous thing we can do in this world is to accept what happens and fly with it.

I've been all over the world and I've never seen a statue of a critic.

People are hungry for success without work.

I don't have the time, skill level, or experience to date one guy, let alone two. Fortunately, there's more to life than boys. How about we focus on something other than me finding a mate?

in the ONLY 1 life we live, we have thousands of tears, millions of smiles, you take some...you give some...

One drop of hatred in your soul will spread and discolor everything like a drop of black ink in white milk.

British people are surprised that I'm British!

No one nor anything can silence me.

The bashful virgin's sidelong looks of love.

I'd like to date, but I'm not really in a position to meet girls.

The only boundaries we have are in form. There are no obstacles in thought.
