If you think humanity can get itself out of all this mess without divine help, then you're not being hopeful - you're hallucinating.

As you get older, you have more and more layers of experience to forgive, more layers of heartbreak, more layers of what you might think of as failure.

The way to have the life we want is to receive more deeply the life we have. Sometimes we keep our own life at arm's length, thinking we'll wait until circumstances improve before giving it all we've got. But life is just a reflection of consciousness, so it's never going to give any more to us than we give to it. Don't wait for a perfect life; breathe in the life that's already perfect.

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

Some of us believe humanity should be in divine partnership with nature, some people believe that man has been given by God the right to have dominion over nature. But since even they say that we should be good stewards, that right there should be the common ground.

The Light in you is the unalterable truth of who you are. You can deny it and obscure it, but you cannot uncreate it.

Your playing small does not serve the world. Who are you not to be great?
