A thought is harmless unless we believe it.

I'll tell you that for me, one when someone used to say something that was true, one way I knew it was true was that I immediately felt defensive. I blocked it off, and I went to war with them in my mind and suffered all that goes with it. And they were only saying what was true.

Life just happens. It’s what you’re believing about life that makes you suffer.

I'm not in Iraq. I'm here in California. Have I had an argument with my husband today? Have I been at war with someone in my life today - or with myself? Let me work on that. That way war is ending somewhere in the world.

I can't love you as you have been or will be. I can only love you as you are.

That's the purpose of stress. It's a friend. It's an alarm clock, built in to let you know that it's time to do The Work.

We all begin to do what we can do, just like we're doing now, to clean up the planet and to find solutions rather than fight. It just happens everywhere.
