Whenever encountering a troublesome person, do not identify him as being cruel or stupid or rude or anything else like that. Instead, see him as a frightened person.
VERNON HOWARD

An obvious fact about negative feelings is often overlooked. They are caused by us, not by exterior happenings. An outside event presents the challenge, but we react to it. So we must attend to the way we take things, not to the things themselves.
VERNON HOWARD

All we have to do is to receive what we are given…We are given the naturalness to love someone, to be calm in crisis, to ignore self-defeating suggestions, to be pleasant, forgiving, tender, helpful, unworried, brave, energetic.
VERNON HOWARD

Quit thinking that you must halt before the barrier of inner negativity. You need not. You can crash through… whatever we see a negative state, that is where we can destroy it.
VERNON HOWARD

The world consists of imaginary people, claiming imaginary virtues and suffering from imaginary happiness.

A false path must be tensely and angrily defended by those it has deceived.
VERNON HOWARD

You can not escape a prison if you do not know you’re in one.
VERNON HOWARD

Escape Knows Prison
Do not mistake desire for love. Desire leaves home in a frantic search for one gratification after another. Love is at home with itself.
VERNON HOWARD

Our life-transformation is in exact proportion to the amount of truth we can take without running away.
