A desperation to escape a problem is the wrong way. A passion to understand it is the right way

Can you think of anything more permanently elating than to know that you are on the right road at last?

The only way to do something truly important every day is to seek to understand yourself every day.

You must dare to disassociate yourself from those who would delay your journey... Leave, depart, if not physically, then mentally. Go your own way, quietly, undramatically, and venture toward Trueness at last.

You need only choose ... then keep choosing as many times as necessary. That is all you need do. And it is certainly something you can do. Then as you continue to choose, everything is yours.

It is a mistake for anyone to think he has lived too long in his old, unsatisfactory ways to make the great change. If you switch on the light in a dark room, it makes no difference how long it was dark because the light will still shine. Be teachable. That is the whole secret.

Realize that the surface personality has no interest in anything which might disturb its darling delusions.
