I try to stop myself from getting frustrated. I'm not a hundred percent successful, but I'm a thousand times better than I used to be. Anyone who's angry, nasty or rude is really offering a plea to be loved. I play a game with myself, trying to convert them from what I call low-energy emotions that drain us - frustration, irritation, anger and impatience - into high-energy emotions that sustain us - love, caring, kindness.

To be born again is to let the past go, and look without condemnation upon the present.

We're all saints! We all have built into us this intention, the capacities for kindness and creativity and beauty. It's a matter of perspective. As Einstein said, "The single most important decision any of us will ever make is whether or not to believe that the universe is friendly." It's your choice.

Forget the laws. If the laws don't make sense, if they run contrary to your conscience, you have to disobey them.

Every single person who's drifted in and out of your life is a part of your divinely chosen experience. So, give thanks for all of these people, and take serious note of what they brought you.

We're starting to look at a new way of being, and I know ultimately that it will triumph. I think it's coming soon, too.

Without Exception, Begin Every Day of your Life with Gratitude.
