The only way to end a culture of violence is to proactively create a culture of peace.

Next time you're about to judge someone, attempt to understand them instead.

The only issue that I have a problem with when it comes to the new age is the way that people such as myself are diminished by that label. I simply don't consider myself "new age." It's other people's small-mindedness that tries to connect me with someone who, let's say, thinks crystals are the answers to all of life's problems. I never did. There are those who suggest that anyone speaking from a base in California has less to say. That kind of bashing doesn't interest me.

The choice to be used as an instrument of love, right here, right now, is a choice for personal empowerment.

The Department of Peace would take a more human approach to healing our society, looking not merely for ways we can destroy an enemy, but for more powerful ways to create new friends. While the State Department engages in international diplomacy, there is no domestic parallel. There is no department seeking to harness the power of a nonviolent heart.

It is your thoughts and your thoughts alone that determine what's possible for you now.

We shouldn’t come up with a pseudo-spiritual excuse for turning away from the pain of the world.
