Anthony de MelloWhen you fight something, you're tied to it forever. As long as you're fighting it, youโre giving it power.
Anthony de MelloAnytime you have a negative feeling toward anyone, you're living in an illusion. There's something seriously wrong with you. You're not seeing reality. Something inside of you has to change. But what do we generally do when we have a negative feeling? "He is to blame, she is to blame. She's got to change." No! The world's all right. The one who has to change is you.
Anthony de Mello
