Resistance is not a peripheral opponent. Resistance arises from within. It is self-generated and self-perpetuated. resistance is the enemy within.

Defeating Resistance is like giving birth. It seems absolutely impossible until you remember that women have been pulling it off successfully, with support and without, for fifty million years.

We feed it [Resistance] with power by our fear of it. Master that fear and we conquer Resistance.

Our job in this lifetime is not to shape ourselves into some ideal we imagine we ought to be, but to find out who we already are and become it.

If we were born to overthrow the order of ignorance and injustice of the world, it’s our job to realize it and get down to business.

The essence of professionalism is the focus upon the work and its demands, while we are doing it, to the exclusion of all else.

A writer writes with his genius; an artist paints with hers; everyone who creates operates from this sacramental center.
