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

It is by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble, there lies your treasure.

If you want the whole thing, the gods will give it to you. But you must be ready for it.

We’re not on our journey to save the world but to save ourselves. But in doing that you save the world. The influence of a vital person vitalizes.

We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us.

What we are really living for is the experience of life, both the pain and the pleasure.

The big question is whether you are going to be able to say a hearty yes to your adventure.

Survival is the second law of life. The first is that we are all one.

If you are on the right path you will find that invisible hands are helping.

A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder. Fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won.

You have to learn to recognize your own depth.

You’ve got to find the force inside you.

If the path before you is clear, you’re probably on someone else’s.

I learned to play with the monsters under my bed. I gave angel wings to the demons in my head. I asked the voices in my mind to sing sweet lullabies and finally, I found the love and fire in my own eyes.

I blame myself for searching for warriors in people that were never brave enough to smile at my demons.

She cannot Conquer your demons. But she can be the guiding light, which shines through the cracks of the darkest corners of your heart to blind them.

You only meet someone, as deeply as they’ve met themselves. So do not allow their demons to condemn your soul to hell.

Careful darling, if the angel in her knows to heal you, the demon in her knows to kill you too.
