The chief prevention against getting old is to remain astonished.

The excursion is the same when you go looking for your sorrow as when you go looking for your joy.

The heart is not like a box that gets filled up; it expands in size the more you love.

Open to whatever you experience without fighting. Let it be present just as it is. Let go of the battle.

You can't lead the people if you don't love the people. You can't save the people, if you don't serve the people.

Don’t be afraid to be confused. Try to remain permanently confused. Anything is possible.

The ability to learn is the most important quality a leader can have.

Often when you think you’re at the end of something, you’re at the beginning of something else.

The simple act of paying attention can take you a long way.

Ultimately a genuine leader is not a searcher for consensus but a molder of consensus.

You have to fail in order to practice being brave.

The great tragedy of life is not that men perish, but that they cease to love.
