Religon is misunderstood mythology

We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.

Life has no meaning. Each of us has meaning and we bring it to life. It is a waste to be asking the question when you are the answer.

If the path before you is clear, you're probably on someone else's.

I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.

The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.

Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.

Life is but a mask worn on the face of death. And is death, then, but another mask? 'How many can say,' asks the Aztec poet, 'that there is, or is not, a truth beyond?'

A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.

Life is not a problem to be solved but a mystery to be lived. Follow the path that is no path, follow your bliss.

It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.

The more material we lose, the less we have. The less we have, the more we win.

The religionist is a living fossil, embedded in that rock called faith.

A coalescence of verbose convolution, veering on imperceptibility, impinges upon a plain proclamation an apparent profundity.

Wisdom is meaningless until your own experience has given it meaning, and there is wisdom in the selection of wisdom.

I am so grateful to be a writer. I hope every child grows up and finds something to do that will seem important and that will seem precious. Happy living and, especially, happy playing.

It is easier to die for a cause than to live for it.

Who isn't a fan of Ray Charles?

This feeling of helplessness in us has arisen from our deliberate dismissal of God from our common affairs.

It is because my roots are so strong that I can fly.

I address a strong appeal from my heart that the dignity and safety of the worker always be protected.
