“Meditation is not a selfish thing. Even though you’re diving in and experiencing the Self, you’re not closing yourself off from the world. You’re strengthening yourself, so that you can be more effective when you go back into the world.”

Films are 50 percent visual and 50 percent sound. Sometimes sound even overplays the visual.

The cinema is really built for the big screen and big sound, so that a person can go into another world and have an experience.

Secrets and mysteries provide a beautiful corridor where you can float out. The corridor expands and many, many wonderful things can happen, I love the process of going into mystery.

The big treasury is an ocean of infinite creativity. It’s a creativity that creates everything that is a thing – it’s mighty powerful creativity.

Inside, we are ageless and when we talk to ourselves, it’s the same age of the person we were talking to when we were little. It’s the body that is changing around that ageless center.

New mysteries. New day. Fresh doughnuts.

When you have something that brings a real emotion, that’s the power of cinema.

We think we understand the rules when we become adults but what we really experience is a narrowing of the imagination.

We only dream of images we already have inside of us.

Mystery is the number one conjurer of ideas.

There is an ocean of creativity within every human being.

Float with me in the world of ether.

The world is as you are.

I don’t like the word ironic. I like the word absurdity, and I don’t really understand the word ‘irony’ too much. The irony comes when you try to verbalize the absurd. When irony happens without words, it’s much more exalted.

Through the darkness of future past, the magician longs to see, one chance out between two worlds, fire walk with me!

It’s a pleasure to dive into Hirshberg’s storytelling skills in American Morons.

The Messerschmitt 109 fighter plane for example, the Stuka dive bomber, the 88 millimeter artillery piece, which could be used both for antiaircraft purposes and also shelling on the ground.

After that, what is the need of books? One should learn the essence and then dive deep in order to realize God.

When the mind soars in pursuit of the things conceived in space…it pursues emptiness; but when man dives deep within himself, he experiences the fullness of existence.

When the spiritually minded dive deeply into the ocean of their meaning they bring to the surface the pearls of their inner significance.

The ego’s phenomenal existence is transcended when you dive into the source from where the `I’-thought rises.

I think being a competitive diver for years helps you focus and dedicate yourself to what’s needed.

In diving to the bottom of pleasure we bring up more gravel than pearls.
