If I can't find a cat, I stop and quiet my mind, not yelling the cat's name, and focus on connecting with the cat and then I get the message and go to that room or outside door and find the cat.

More quotes by Bernie Siegel
If you see what you do each day as your way of loving the world and helping it heal, then life gets to be a lot different. The difference between burning up and burning out is the difference between loving what you are doing and not loving it.
Bernie Siegel
I grew up caring about people and I would say again, that's what made me who I am. I became a doctor for what I like to call healthy reasons. Not because I'm fascinated by the human body or want to understand death, but I like people and I want to help them. That also became my problem, because I couldn't help everyone, I couldn't fix everyone
Bernie Siegel
What I try to get physically healthy people to understand is that they're going to die someday. There is no way out. And dying isn't failure, but not living is, so make use of your time. Don't keeping waiting.
Bernie Siegel
We destroy ourselves when we stop feeling. If you bury your feelings within you, you become a graveyard.
Bernie Siegel
People have taught me what most doctors don't learn, in other words, when somebody does better than expected, the doctor will tell them they're doing very well and to keep it up. I learned to say, You didn't die when you were supposed to so what's going on?, and they always had a story to tell me.
Bernie Siegel
What if Jesus was the only normal person who ever lived?
Bernie Siegel
Love and kindness are the basis of my religious beliefs. The rituals and outward signs are not as important as one's actions and deeds. Religion should be a path to God, not something to fight about.
Bernie Siegel
Love is giving with no expectations...Love cures, heals, and rewards two people: the lover and the beloved.
Bernie Siegel
Medicine is a very tough thing. I mean, everyone is going to die. Sooner or later. That's a tough thing to face.
Bernie Siegel
There is no such thing as an incurable disease, only incurable people.
Bernie Siegel
There's very little that shocks me because I consider life a miracle so I guess what shocks me is that life exists. How the hell did we get here? What shocks me is that bacteria alter their genes and resist antibiotics and viruses resist vaccines.
Bernie Siegel
If you talk to your body, it will listen.
Bernie Siegel
Don't try to help people to 'not die', help them to enjoy life!
Bernie Siegel
Give someone who has faith in you a placebo and call it a hair growing pill, anti-nausea pill or whatever, and you will be amazed at how many respond to your therapy.
Bernie Siegel
God is in everyone and everything. When we save each other or guide each other or just love each other, we are doing God's work. So God dresses in Eskimo clothing or other disguises, and responds to us whether or not we are aware enough to hear, see, or feel God's loving guidance. Everything is a tool of God, from DNA to the weather.
Bernie Siegel
Information doesn't mean a thing to people without inspiration.
Bernie Siegel
For me, a lovely day is any day I wake up.
Bernie Siegel
True inspiration overrides all fears. When you are inspired, you enter a trance state and can accomplish things that you may never have felt capable of doing.
Bernie Siegel
Your body loves you, but if you do not love your life, it will end it far sooner, thinking it is doing you a favor.
Bernie Siegel
By disregarding intuition in favor of science, or science in favor of instincts, we limit ourselves.
