You've got to say yes to this miracle of life as it is, not on condition that it follow your rules.

The ultimate dragon is within you, it is your ego clamping you down.

No one in the world was ever you before, with your particular gifts and abilities and possibilities.

I don’t think people are really seeking the meaning of Life. I think we’re seeking an experience of being alive…we want to feel the rapture of being alive

If you live with the myths in your mind, you will find yourself always in mythological situations. They cover everything that can happen to you. And that enables you to interpret the myth in relation to life, as well as life in relation to myth.

You can't say life is useless because it ends in the grave.

As a white candle / In a holy place, / So is the beauty / Of an aged face
