Nothing ever goes wrong in life.

And as long as we believe what we believe - until that is questioned - there's no progress as a human race. Again, we still have war. So, effective rehabilitation is to question what we believe. When that happens, everyone gets out of prison.

You would be amazed at who people are once you know yourself.

Look at your life without the thought "Something terrible is going to happen."

If you put your hand into a fire, does anyone have to tell you to move it? Do you have to decide? No: When your hand starts to burn, it moves. You don’t have to direct it; the hand moves itself. In the same way, once you understand, through inquiry, that an untrue thought causes suffering, you move away from it.

We do not mature through age. We mature in awareness.

I like to say it was born out of laughter.
