Within the human being there exists both the needful and the needed. You know that the needful exists in you. Your own dissatisfaction tells you so. But you believe the needed is somewhere outside of you.

One way to measure your own fears is to count the number of personal questions you've allowed others to answer for you.

Do the moment-to-moment work of dropping anything that wants to drag you down, and Reality itself will see to it that you rise.

Believing that anxious thoughts and feelings can restore order to your life is like using a chain-saw to fold your laundry.

We become what we love. What we put first in our lives is what we receive from life.

If any of those times you rushed around madly - trying to get somewhere faster - had ever made any real difference in the quality of your life... don't you think you'd be able to slow down by now?

Love is effortless attention.
