Work to connect yourself to the allness of life -- instead of identifying with the smallness of it -- and you'll awaken to a greatness already living within you that is no more bothered by the little things in life than a mountain is made miserable by the rain that falls upon it.

From the movie, The Boy Who Could Fly Somewhere, deep inside, we can all fly.

Self-pity is the campsite of self-defeat; it is a dark refuge for those parts of us that would rather wallow in what cannot be than dare to explore what is possible.

No condition outside ourselves can create a rut or trap us in it. It's impossible.

The belief that you have no choice but to keep suffering through whatever frightens you is like believing you have to hold onto a scalding cup so that you won't spill your coffee!

In spite of how things may appear to us, we are never trapped by where we are. The trap is always who we are

Every one of us lives in a world that is no larger and no smaller than our understanding.
