Paul Brunton's Notebooks are a veritable treasure-trove of philosophic-spiritual wisdom.

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of those depths.

People are like stained - glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.

Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself, and know that everything in life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from.

I've told my children that when I die, to release balloons in the sky to celebrate that I graduated. For me, death is a graduation.

Just the knowledge that a good book is awaiting one at the end of a long day makes that day happier.

There is no cell culture for depression. You can't see it on a bone scan or an x-ray. Not everyone with depression will show the same behavioral symptoms.

I would die for you.

Our body always tells us what it wants and needs—the question is whether we are listening.

Marriage equality is not a choice. It is a legal right.

My dad grew up in a working-class Jewish neighbourhood, and I got a scholarship from my dad's union to go to college. I went there to get an education, not as an extension of privilege.

I use the echo effect a lot when I DJ because it allows for smooth transitions, especially at different BPMs. It also adds a studio quality to live DJ performances.

An evil deed, like fresh milk, does not go bad suddenly. Smouldering, like fire covered by ashes, the evil deed follows the fool.

It rained all that night. The next day was Saturday, the Fourth of July.

It is now conceivable that our children's children will know the term cancer only as a constellation of stars.
