What you're thinking is what you're becoming.

Let him who would move the world first move himself.

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.

Drop the idea that you are Atlas carrying the world on your shoulders. The world would go on even without you. Don't take yourself so seriously.

I don't like definitions, but if there is a definition of freedom, it would be when you have control over your reality to transform it, to change it, rather than having it imposed upon you. You can't really ask for more than that.

The more skilled you are at something, the worse you are at it when showing someone.

Drop the idea of becoming someone, because you are already a masterpiece. You cannot be improved. You have only to come to it, to know it, to realize it.

Language is very powerful. Language does not just describe reality. Language creates the reality it describes.

Time wounds all heels.

You have heard that it was said, 'Eye for eye, and tooth for tooth.' But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also.

If we know exactly where we're going, exactly how to get there, and exactly what we'll see along the way, we won't learn anything.

We must live together as brothers or perish together as fools.
