What the caterpillar calls a tragedy, the Master calls a butterfly.
Ask yourself the secret of your success. Listen to your answer, and practice it.
The more I want to get something done, the less I call it work.
Iβm here not because I am supposed to be here, or because Iβm trapped here, but because Iβd rather be with you than anywhere else in the world.
The opposite of Loneliness is not Togetherness , It's Intimacy
Your conscience is the measure of the honesty of your selfishness. Listen to it carefully.
No matter how qualified or deserving we are, we will never reach a better life until we can imagine it for ourselves and allow ourselves to have it.
You're never given a dream without also being given the power to make it true.
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.
Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you.
Argue for your limitations and, sure enough, they're yours.
Listen to what you know instead of what you fear.
A tiny change today brings a dramatically different tomorrow.
The meaning I picked, the one that changed my life: Overcome fear, behold wonder.
The world is your exercise book, the pages on which you do your sums. It is not reality, though you may express reality there if you wish. You are also free to write lies, or nonsense, or to tear the pages.
The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.
Donβt believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding.
Like everything else, Fletcher. Practice.
Remember where you came from, where youβre going, and why you created the mess you got yourself into in the first place. You're going to die a horrible death, remember. It's all good training, and you'll enjoy it more if you keep the facts in mind. Take your dying with some seriousness, however. Laughing on the way to your execution is not generally understood by less-advanced life-forms, and they'll call you crazy.
Having made the decision to love, had I chosen life instead of death?
