There are only three things you need to let go of judging, controlling, and being right. Release these three and you will have the whole mind and twinkly heart of a child.

I talk because I feel, and I talk to you because I want you to know how I feel.

Unless I accept my faults, I will most certainly doubt my virtues.

The components of happiness are quite simple. Happiness is gentleness, peace, concentration, simplicity, forgiveness, humor, fearlessness, trust, and now. In its true form each quality includes all the rest, for happiness is whole, and one feels whole when genuinely happy.

I'd rather be happy than right.

Negative feedback is better that none. I would rather have a man hate me than overlook me. As long as he hates me I make a difference.

Being myself includes taking risks with myself, taking risks on new behavior, trying new ways of 'being myself', so that I can see who it is I want to be.
