“You become what you think about all day long.”

Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.

Few people know how to take a walk. The qualifications are endurance, plain clothes, old shoes, an eye for nature, good humor, vast curiosity, good speech, good silence and nothing too much.

Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.

You are constantly invited to be what you are.

Life is a journey, not a destination.

Most of the shadows of this life are caused by standing in one’s own sunshine.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

The years teach much the days never know.

It is easy to live for others, everybody does. I call on you to live for yourself.

Envy is ignorance, Imitation is Suicide.

Some books leave us free and some books make us free.

We acquire the strength we have overcome.

The mind, once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions.

What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered.

Trust thyself: every heart vibrates to that iron string.

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

Because I have seen a rare kind of peace in the eyes of loners. Because I have heard whispers of battles of the accompanied.

God is not only true, but Truth itself.

Falling for superficial costs depth its entire existence.

Is it a loss that is still present? Or a presence that seems to be lost?

Deep down, I reckon the sweetest moment will come when it’s finally all over. When, at last, I know that I can stop fighting. Of course it’ll also be a little sad. The sweetest moments, y’know, always come with just a little sadness.

Overcoming guilt, its the first step to doing it again.

Empty boxes pleading empty boxes to fill them with peace and love.

I found my old diary tonight. A brokenness I had forgotten pen pressured so deep it punctured page. I ran my fingers over my words and there inside ridges black I found a little girl desperate for someone to save her, desperate for the very woman I have become.
