“Be Skeptical, but learn to listen.”

Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.

Respect is one of the greatest expressions of love.

Death is not the biggest fear we have; our biggest fear is taking the risk to be alive – the risk to be alive and express what we really are.

Humans believe so many lies because we aren’t aware. We ignore the truth or we just don’t see the truth. When we are educated, we accumulate a lot of knowledge, and all that knowledge is just like a wall of fog that doesn’t allow us to perceive the truth, what really is.

Every human is an artist. And this is the main art that we have: the creation of our story.

Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick.

Be Impeccable With Your Word. Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.

When we respect everybody around us, we are in peace with everybody around us.

Everything you think about yourself, everything you believe about yourself, is because you learned it.

Every human is an artist. The dream of your life is to make beautiful art.

The word is a force you cannot see, but you can see the manifestation of that force, the expression of the word, which is your own life.

Before we were born, a whole society of storytellers was already here. The storytellers who were here before us taught us how to be human.

When we believe in lies, we cannot see the truth, so we make thousands of assumptions and we take them as truth. One of the biggest assumptions we make is that the lies we believe are the truth!

Listen to other people tell their story, but don’t believe them. You know that it’s just a story that is only true for them, but listen because the communication can be wonderful.

For thousands of years, there have been lies about being gay or not being gay. If you know they’re lies, you’re free.

The same way that you are the main character of your story, you are only a secondary character in everybody else’s story.

We learn to trust ourselves by allowing ourselves to be vulnerable.

However much you study, you cannot know without action. A donkey laden with books is neither an intellectual nor a wise man. Empty of essence, what learning has he whether upon him is firewood or book?

Love is the law of God. You live that you may learn to love. You love that you may learn to live. No other lesson is required of Man.

Heaven has not learned of my arrival, and my departure will not in the least diminish it beauty and grandeur. I will sleep underground, for us ephemeral mortals, the only eternity is the moment and drinking to the moment is better than weeping for it.

He who learns, and makes no use of his learning, is a beast of burden with a load of books. Does the ass comprehend whether he carries on his back a library or a bundle of faggots?

You have to learn to take rejection not as an indication of personal failing but as a wrong address.

Mom, thank you for raising me, teaching me, learning with me and from me.

I’m so grateful to my parents for my upbringing and for all of the opportunities that I was provided with, but I also learned at a young age that success is not given, it is earned and that has always been something that motivates me.
