I want to be a writer, not an engineer who writes books.

I am not saying that I am different, but I don't have emotional pain. I may be angry and I may be peaceful, but no emotional pain.

I never say I am a guru.

We hereby declare the end to the wall dividing the sacred from the profane: from now on, all is sacred.

We humans have two great problems: the first is knowing when to begin; the second is knowing when to stop.

Yes, my mind was wandering. I wished I were there with someone who could bring peace to my heart someone with whom I could spend a little time without being afraid that i would lose him the next day. With that reassurance, the time would pass more slowly. We could be silent for a while because we'd know we had the rest of our lives together for conversation. I wouldn't have to worry about serious matters, about difficult decisions and hard words.

Postpone joy, it will diminish. Postpone a problem, it will grow.
