The world can only seem a safe place when we feel safe inside.

If you're going to live in the anxiety of the surface of this world, you're never going to find the depth, the source. If you want calmness, you've got to go deeper.

Treat yourself as if you were someone inexpressibly dear to you.

It gives me such hope that each one of us can contribute to make this world a better place.

My greatest life lesson has been to not wait for the opportunities to come to me. I realize how important it is to be proactive and to create the opportunities myself.

I think I have an awareness inside of me that we are all the same, that basically we are all part of that one heart.

No matter who you are, you have a giant self.

We forget that our bodies are the most valuable, precious thing we have and take that miracle of life for granted.

We all have something that centers us in our lives. That linchpin is something that when we don't do enough of it, we start to feel off center.

Into your darkest corner, you are safe in my love, you are protected. I am the openess you seek, I am your doorway. Come sit in the circular temple of my heart, & let yourself be calm.

I'm not what happened to me. I am what I choose to become.

It was not the philosophers and the prophets who taught us to believe in life after death

Looking on the bright side of life never killed anybody.

I care to live only to entice people to look at Nature’s loveliness.

I hear you. I just don't believe a word you say.

Independence is a political concept, not a biological concept.

I think people never hear what they say, and speech is a mocking sound instead of a jazz concert.

If you and I are to be used in our sphere as D.L. Moody was used in his, we must put all that we have and all that we are in the hands of God, for Him to use as He will.

You have to be able to look back at your life and say, "Yeah, that was fun."

One must always be aware, to notice even though the cost of noticing is to become responsible.

The purpose of Zen is the perfection of character.
