I am the perpetrator of my suffering - but only all of it.
Byron Katie
Image
The world you live in is 100 percent your own responsibility. If you don't like your world, it doesn't work to say, Well, it's my mother's fault. She taught me how to think.
Byron Katie
Image
I've heard people say that they cling to their painful thoughts because they're afraid that without them they wouldn't be activists for peace. If I feel peaceful, they say, why would I bother taking action at all?
Byron Katie

You are the effect of your story, that's all.
Byron Katie

With inquiry, every painful story unravels. Freedom is possible in every moment.
Byron Katie

When you think that someone or something other than yourself needs to change, you're mentally out of your business.
Byron Katie
Image
The Work always leaves you with less of a story. Who would you be without your story? You never know until you inquire. There is no story that is you or that leads to you. Every story leads away from you. Turn it around undo it. You are what exists before all stories. You are what remains when the story is understood.

A thought is harmless unless we believe it.

Byron Katie
Image
When you don't believe something, you can't make yourself believe it. There's nothing you can do to believe it again. You either believe it or you don't.
Byron Katie
Image
Until we question our stressful thoughts, we remain victims of the images in our head.
Byron Katie
Image
When you believe that your problem is caused by someone or something else, you become your own victim.
Byron Katie
Image
If you knew how important you are, you would fragment into a billion pieces and just be light.
Byron Katie
Image
There's no way that a clear mind can live an unhappy life.
Byron Katie
Image
You might believe that it's only for their own good, but how does it feel when you try to manipulate the people you love? Are you teaching them that your love is conditional? Maybe through inquiry we can find another way.
Byron Katie
Image
To think that I know what's best for anyone else is to be out of my business. Even in the name of love, it is pure arrogance, and the result is tension, anxiety, and fear. Do I know what's right for me? That is my only business. Let me work with that before I try to solve problems for you.
Byron Katie
Image
Until you look forward to all criticism, your Work's not done.
Byron Katie
Image
Until we know that death is equal to life, we live in fear.
Byron Katie
