People hear you on the level you speak to them from. Speak from your heart, and they will hear with theirs.

Never think you can separate who you are from what you're doing.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.

Sobriety itself is today's high, for it is ultimately in the most centered consciousness that we find our power to transcend the world.

In every heart there is an inner room, where we can hold our greatest treasures and our deepest pain.

We go through those circumstances in order to evolve into people who can hold to our loving center no matter what the world throws us. A loving universe makes sure that we go through those things too.

There are other kinds of emotional pain that emerge from our own mistaken thinking. As we surrender that pain, we are inviting into our thought system a guide who will lead us to different thoughts. It’s like the song “Amazing Grace”: I was blind and now I see.
