This very moment is the perfect teacher, and, lucky for us, it's with us wherever we go.

The more we witness our emotional reactions and understand how they work, the easier it is to refrain.

Fear itself is the vanguard of wisdom

Appreciate everything, even the ordinary... Especially the ordinary.

The more neurosis the more wisdom.

If your mind is expansive and unfettered, you will find yourself in a more accommodating world, a place that's endlessly interesting and alive. That quality isn't inherent in the place but in your state of mind.

Whole-heartedn ess is a precious gift, but no one can actually give it to you. You have to find the path that has heart and then walk it impeccably....It' s like someone laughing in your ear, challenging you to figure out what to do when you don't know what to do. It humbles you. It opens your heart.
