“The snow goose need not bathe to make itself white. Neither need you do anything but be yourself.”

Care about what other people think and you will always be their prisoner.

Stop leaving and you will arrive. Stop searching and you will see. Stop running away and you will be found.

Take care with the end as you do with the beginning.

There is a time to live and a time to die but never to reject the moment.

Just remain in the center; watching. And then forget that you are there.

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes.

He who defends with love will be secure; Heaven will save him, and protect him with love.

One who is too insistent on his own views finds few to agree with him.

When nothing is done, nothing is left undone.

If you try to change it, you will ruin it. Try to hold it, and you will lose it.

We join spokes together in a wheel, but it is the center hole that makes the wagon move.

Water is the softest thing, yet it can penetrate mountains and earth. This shows clearly the principle of softness overcoming hardness.

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.

Patient with both friends and enemies, you accord with the way things are.

Hope and fear are both phantoms that arise from thinking of the self. When we don’t see the self as self, what do we have to fear?

Accomplish but do not boast, accomplish without show, accomplish without arrogance, accomplish without grabbing, accomplish without forcing.

Reality breaks hearts, but life is beautiful.

It was the way she loved herself that inspired others.

You don’t miss them, you miss the version of them, scripted in your mind. Maybe it’s time for you, to change the actor of your story.

Evil exists in the shadows of our world and I’m realizing that without the darkness there would be no light. We need both to stay alive.

Escape from the known to get to know yourself, converse with strangers to understand yourself, travel far from noise to find yourself, and listen to your silence to feel yourself. Because being away from everything pushes you to look inside, find your peace and live awake.

Just because you took longer than others doesn’t mean you failed. Remember that.

Every winner thinks he can win.

Please keep in mind it’s always darkest just before dawn.
