Remember that your natural state is joy.

Our intention creates our reality.

If you believe it will work out , you'll see opportunities. If you believe it won't you will see obstacles.

Love is the ability and willingness to allow those that you care for to be what they choose for themselves without any insistence that they satisfy you.

If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It's to enjoy each step along the way.

How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.

Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.

When you squeeze an orange, orange juice comes out, because that's what's inside. When you are squeezed, what comes out is what is inside.

If it excites you, if it makes you feel good, it's God speaking to you.

I cannot always control what goes on outside. But I can always control what goes on inside.

You trample on hearts as if they're grapes and you're making wine.

I discourage a cult of personality.

I don't think you can tell the objective truth about a person. That's why people write novels.

Truth is, I didn't know what the hell I was doing when I got out of Cal Arts. I think I wasted a lot of time not being bold enough, or still engaged in the questioning that you get into at school.

From the beginning, when I first got an idea for a story and wondered if I could write it, it has always been the story that has driven me.

I would tell myself the same thing that I continue to tell myself today, which is don't sweat the small things.

I could trust a fact and always cross-question an assertion.

As we become civilized we are governed less by persons and more by principles. . . . The best of all leaders is the man who teaches people to lead themselves.

I think fans can tell if you just slap a skateboarder on a game - you can't fool kids.

Restrain thy mind, and let mildness ever attend thy tongue.
