It is best to erase all personal history because that would make us free from the encumbering thoughts of other people

A path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you . . . Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself alone, one question . . . Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn't it is of no use.

For me the world is weird because it is stupendous, awesome, mysterious, unfathomable; my interest has been to convince you that you must assume responsibility for being here, in this marvelous world, in this marvelous desert, in this marvelous time. I want to convince you that you must learn to make every act count, since you are going to be here for only a short while, in fact, too short for witnessing all the marvels of it.

When one has nothing to lose, one becomes courageous. We are timid only when there is something we can still cling to.

Do you know at this very moment you are surrounded by eternity? And do you know that you can use that eternity if you so desire?

Forget the self and you will fear nothing, in whatever level or awareness you find yourself to be.

I'm afraid you will have to fly holding the rock with its heavy chain.
