“Life is like arriving late for a movie, having to figure out what was going on without bothering everybody with a lot of questions, and then being unexpectedly called away before you find out how it ends.”

Myths are public dreams, dreams are private myths.

Apocalypse does not point to a fiery Armageddon but to the fact that our ignorance and our complacency are coming to an end.

You can’t have creativity unless you leave behind the bounded, the fixed, all the rules

If you are to advance, all fixed ideas must go.

We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. The old skin has to be shed before the new one can come. –

It’s only when a man tames his own demons that he becomes the king of himself if not of the world.

Opportunities to find deeper powers within ourselves come when life seems most challenging.

When you follow your bliss, you begin to meet people who are in the field of your bliss, and they open the doors to you.

The dreamer and his dream are the same…the powers personified in a dream are these that move the world.

If there were already a path, it would have to be someone else’s; the whole point is to find your own way.

You must have a place to which you can go in your heart, your mind, or your house, almost every day, where you do not owe anyone and where no one owes you – a place that simply allows for the blossoming of something new and promising.

Nothing can happen to you that is not positive. Even though it looks and feels at the moment like a negative crisis, it is not. The crisis throws you back, and when you are required to exhibit strength, it comes.

The privilege of a lifetime is being who you are.

Follow your bliss. The heroic life is living the individual adventure. There is no security in following the call to adventure. Nothing is exciting if you know what the outcome is going to be.

The hero journey is inside of you; tear off the veils and open the mystery of your self.

You become mature when you become the authority of your own life.

Every time I start to get worked up over something, I just think to myself, ‘Is this really going to matter in my life tomorrow, in an hour, in a year?’ You just can’t get stressed about the little things ’cause it’s just not worth it at the end of the day.

The individual who can do something that the world wants done will, in the end, make his way regardless of his race.

Some of us are here to be the change-makers in our family system. We’re here to end generational trauma and start passing down love, instead of pain.

Well, don’t we all feel like jumping to the end of the world sometimes?

The thing that was most interesting to me was getting my first prints back from the printer and realizing photography doesn’t end with the click of a button, it starts there. Printing is so exciting.

I always try to write a song to work things out with myself and I want to do it with a little punchline at the end, because I never want to remember anything bad in my life.

I watch everybody every night, from sitting down to being on their feet at the end, and I feel a sense of reinvention, of caring, presenting these songs in their purest form.

I think you fall out of love with theater while you’re doing your eighth show of your eighteenth week and your body is saying, “Please make this end.”
