“Letting go, at its heart, is an act of agreement with Life.”
“Do the moment-to-moment work of dropping anything that wants to drag you down, and Reality itself will see to it that you rise.”

“It seems to me an utterly futile task to prescribe rules and limitations for the conduct of war. War is not a game; hence one cannot wage war by rules as one would in playing games. Our fight must be against war itself. The masses of people can most effectively fight the institution of war by establishing an organization for the absolute refusal of military service.”
“I had been anxious and depressed for years and suddenly I was deeply at peace.”
“If I have to choose between peace and righteousness, I'll choose righteousness.”

“Look at children. Of course they may quarrel, but generally speaking they do not harbor ill feelings as much or as long as adults do. Most adults have the advantage of education over children, but what is the use of an education if they show a big smile while hiding negative feelings deep inside? Children don�t usually act in such a manner. If they feel angry with someone, they express it, and then it is finished. They can still play with that person the following day.”
“Grow angry slowly - there's plenty of time.”
“I’m not clear enough in the head to feel anything but varieties of dull anger and arrows of sadness.”
