To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest.

If it is true for you, it is true for someone else, and you are no longer alone.

Within you there is a stillness and a sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time.

If you wake up and the day feels broken, just lean into the crack.

To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's.

Life is made of ever so many partings welded together.

The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you.

You will never get any more out of life than you expect.

I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.

Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.

Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy.

Above all, don't fear difficult moments. The best comes from them.
