It is very difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on not understanding it.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed it's the only thing that ever has.

What distinguishes the majority of men from the few is their inability to act according to their beliefs.

If you wake up one morning realising that you do not know anything, then you are awake. If you still think you know something, then you are still asleep. If you are still trying to know, you are still trying to control. If you are still trying to control then you still think something can ‘go wrong’. If you still think something can go wrong then you are not in touch with the source. If you are not in touch with the source then you live in fear. You are living in the fear that you have created, and that you are trying to get away from.

One can live for years sometimes without living at all, and then all life comes crowding into one single hour.

We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.

Bloom where you are planted.

It is never too late to be what you might have been.

What if we discover that our present way of life is irreconcilable with our vocation to become fully human?
