Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself. Being true to anyone else or anything else is not only impossible, but the mark of a fake messiah.

The opposite of Loneliness is not Togetherness , It's Intimacy.

What the caterpillar calls the end of the world the master calls a butterfly.

Listen to what you know instead of what you fear.

You are led, when you share your loves, to an enchanted life of inner happiness, which unsharing others cannot know.

I've learned that it is what I do not know that I fear, and I strive, outwardly from pride, inwardly from the knowledge that the unknown is what will finally kill me, to know all there is to be known about my airplane. I will never die.

When we come to the last moment of this lifetime and we look back across it, the only thing that's going to matter is 'What is the quality of our love?'
