You're never given more pain than you can handle. You never, ever get more than you can take.

When you're comfortable and secure, it's not enough. The mind doesn't stop there because it has to continue to focus itself as this body, so it moves to pleasure. And pleasure really is a non-existent thing. When we're experiencing pleasure, we're trying to hold onto it as it leaves, so it really isn't pleasure. Pleasure is pain because we're grasping.

I love to not defend ever and to open my mind and take in what can always add to me, not take away from me.

Pay close attention to the particular thoughts you use to deprive yourself of happiness.

I have a list of universal beliefs, and they are amazing beliefs, like, "No one cares" or "You don't care about me"; "I should be successful" or "I'm not successful"; "I don't have enough money"; "I'm too tall or thin or fat"; "I shouldn't have done it" - oh, my goodness, they go on and on and on.

I think our children are afraid to die because we're afraid to die.

The world isn't what I've believed it to be, and I am not what I believed me to be, and neither is anyone.
