Quote

I have discovered that in every language and every country I have visited, there are no new stories. They're all recycled. The same stressful thoughts arise in each mind one way or another, sooner or later.

Who would you be without your story?

Byron Katie
Image
And as long as we believe what we believe - until that is questioned - there's no progress as a human race. Again, we still have war. So, effective rehabilitation is to question what we believe. When that happens, everyone gets out of prison.
Byron Katie
Image
Nothing you believe is true. To know this is freedom.
Byron Katie
Image
No one can hurt me - that's my job.
Byron Katie
Image
War that I have anywhere in my life should stop.
Byron Katie

Your nature is truth, and when you oppose it, you don't feel like yourself. Stress never feels as natural as peace does.
Byron Katie

Look at your life without the thought Something terrible is going to happen.
