“Love is what we are born with. Fear is what we learn. The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and prejudices and the acceptance of love back in our hearts. Love is the essential reality and our purpose on earth.”

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.

If you know what changes a heart, you know what changes the world.

I’ve come to trust not that events will always unfold exactly as I want, but that I will be fine either way. The challenges we face in life are always lessons that serve our soul’s growth.

Everything we do is either an act of love or a cry for help.

Love, when it is a sacred quest, is a space of resurrection and repair. It does more than help us survive a soulless world; it helps us to transform.

Magic happens when you tell the universe what you want it to do for you; miracles happen when you ask how you can be of service to the universe.

Each of us has a unique part to play in the healing of the world.

Your life shows up for you when you show up for your life.

I have lived enough to know great things will unfold for me externally only if I allow them to unfold for me internally.

The spiritual journey is the unlearning of fear and the acceptance of love.

Inner peace doesn’t come from getting what we want, but from remembering who we are.

In every community, there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart, there is the power to do it.

Every bird that sings, sings for you. Every breeze that blows, blows for you. Every sunray shines for you. If you only knew how loved you are.

Prepare for the new; expect the new; embrace the new. Otherwise, you’ll just repeat what’s old.

We are not here to fix, change or belittle another person. We are here to support, forgive and heal one another.

Just like a sunbeam can’t separate itself from the sun, and a wave can’t separate itself from the ocean, we can’t separate ourselves from one another. We are all part of a vast sea of love, one indivisible divine mind.

Time ripens all things; no man is born wise.

Teamwork does not come naturally. Let’s face it. We are born with certain inclinations, but sharing isn’t one of them.

We were all born carrying a promise — a promise to make the world better — and there’s a yearning to make good on that promise that none of us can suppress forever.

Just as the first sign of life in an infant when born into the world is the act of breathing, so the first act of men and women when they are born again is praying.

I find myself born into this particular position. I’m determined to make the most of it. And to do whatever I can to help. And I hope I leave things behind a little bit better than I found them.

Christianity was literally born in the Middle East, and we must not forget our Middle Eastern brothers and sisters in Christ.

My folks came to U.S. as immigrants, aliens, and became citizens. I was born in Boston, a citizen, went to Hollywood and became an alien.

Except a man be born again, he will wish one day he had never been born at all.
