It takes great generosity to accept generosity.

Until you divest yourself of the notion that you are a collection of needs, an empty vessel that someone else must fill up, there will be no safe place to harbor yourself, no safe shore to reach. As long as you think mostly of getting, you will have nothing real to give.

There are really only two ways to approach life - as victim or as gallant fighter - and you must decide if you want to act or react, deal your own cards or play with a stacked deck. And if you don't decide which way to play with life, it always plays with you.

One can never change the past, only the hold it has on you, and while nothing in your life is reversible, you can reverse it nevertheless.

you have to be very careful when you give to others that you don't tell them how great you are rather than how much you value them.

One can never change the past, only the hold it has on you.
