Let me give you a wonderful Zen practice. Wake up in the morning...look in the mirror, and laugh at yourself.

The more you learn, the more you know that you're not so hot.

Our actions—whether they make peace or war—reverberate throughout this universe.

Take care of yourself right now. Befriend what's happening, not just who you're supposed to be or what the world should be like.

In every area, working with what you habitually reject is one of the best ways to facilitate growth and transformation.

We freeze up because we expect a certain result or because we want things to be perfect.

Grub first, then ethics.

Life is sometimes sad and often dull, but there are currants in the cake, and here is one of them.

Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.

Love is what carries you, for it is always there, even in the dark, or most in the dark, but shining out at times like gold stitches in a piece of embroidery.

The law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets and to steal bread.

I'm very serious about no alcohol, no drugs. Life is too beautiful.

The biggest myth about aging is that we can't do anything about it. That it's a road to being decrepit, frail, and sick.

Scandal is gossip made tedious by morality.

It is fatal to enter an war without the will to win it.
