> The simplest questions are the most profound. Where were you born? Where is your home? Where are you going? What are you doing? Think about these once in a while, and watch your answers change.

>  There is such a thing as perfection. and our purpose for living is to find that perfection and show it forth. Each of us is in truth an unlimited idea of freedom. Everything that limits us we have to put aside.

> That's what learning is, after all; not whether we lose the game, but how we lose and how we've changed because of it and what we take away from it that we never had before, to apply to other games. Losing, in a curious way, is winning.

> It is by not always thinking of yourself, if you can manage it, that you might somehow be happy. Until you make room in your life for someone as important to you as yourself, you will always be searching and lost>.

> 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 false messiah.

> You are never given a wish without being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however.

> Every person, all the events of your life, are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you.

> If it's never our fault, we can't take responsibility for it. If we can't take responsibility for it, well always be its victim.

> Can miles truly separate us from friends? If we want to be with someone we love, aren't we already there?

> If you love someone, set them free. If they come back they're yours; if they don't they never were.

> I don't want to do business with those who don't make a profit, because they can't give the best service.

> The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life.

> Argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they're yours.

> The best way to pay for a lovely moment is by enjoying it.

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

> We generate our own environment. We get exactly what we deserve. How can we resent a life we've created ourselves? Who's to blame, who's to credit but us? Who can change it, anytime we wish, but us?

> A cloud does not know why it moves in just such a direction and at such a speed, it feels an impulsion. this is the place to go now. but the sky knows the reason and the patterns behind all clouds, and you will know too, when you lift yourself high enough to see beyond horizons.

> You have no birthday because you have always lived; you were never born, and never will die. You are not the child of the people you call mother and father, but their fellow-adventurer on a bright journey to understand the things that are.

> Learning is finding out what you already know. Doing is demonstrating that you know it. Teaching is reminding others that they know it just as well as you do. You are all learners, doers, and teachers.

> Nothing happens by chance, my friend. No such thing as luck. A meaning behind every little thing and such a meaning behind this. Part for you, part for me, may not see it all real clear right now, but we will, before long.

> Shop for security over happiness and we buy it at that price.

> Compelling reason will never convince blinding emotion.

> Ask yourself the secret of YOUR success. Listen to your answer, and practice it.

> Every problem has a gift for you in its hands.

> Happiness is the reward we get for living to the highest right we know.

> If your happiness depends on what somebody else does, I guess you do have a problem.

> Strong beliefs win strong men, and then make them stronger.

> The more l want to get something done, the less I call it work.

> Sooner or later, those who win are those who think they can.

> I gave my life to become the person I am right now. Was it worth it?

> Really profound and hard to understand: Here is a simple test to find out if your mission on Earth is fulfilled or not. If you're alive, it isn't.
