If I am identified with my relationship, with my house, or with my money, I am doomed to suffer.

Far better is it for you to go through one small thing that frightens you than to make a thousand plans for an imagined fearless day to come.

You don't need strength to let go of something. What you really need is understanding.

It's time to break our ties with anything in us that would rather complain about its situation than go to work to change it.

The only world in which "defeat" exists as a reality is the one darkened by the false idea that what may have happened to us a moment ago is the same as what's possible for us to achieve now.

Any conclusion you reach about yourself has to be an unseen limitation because there's always more to see.

You cannot separate the onset of a disturbing moment in life from the appearance of some simultaneous new possibility to know a deeper and more unshakable sense of peace.
