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.

It's not what happens in life that bothers us. It's what we're believing about it that bothers us.

When I turn the thought around - the thought that war, let's say war in Iraq, should stop - the turnaround is the war in myself should stop.

If I had a prayer, it would be this: "God, spare me from the desire for love, approval, or appreciation. Amen."

When you question what you believe, you leave the world, really, and what the world believes. It puts you in a very interesting position.

Peace doesn't require two people; it requires only one. It has to be you. The problem begins and ends there.

What I say and what I'm really experiencing - those universes are very different.
