More quotes by Byron Katie
But when you think you're supposed to do something with it and imagine that you're the doer, that's pure delusion. Just follow your passion. Do what you love. Inquire, and have a happy life while you're doing it.
Byron Katie
When a thought appears such as Do the dishes and you don't do them, notice how an internal war breaks out... The stress and weariness you feel are really mental combat fatigue.
Byron Katie
You would be amazed at who people are once you know yourself.
Byron Katie
It's good that it hurts. Pain is the signal that you're confused, that you're in a lie.
Byron Katie
When we question our thoughts, we see that the craziness was never in the world, but in us.
Byron Katie
We cannot see what we don't believe.
Byron Katie
Joy is a natural way of being.
Byron Katie
When we work with our thinking, then to have great wealth is the same as to have nothing. That's the only freedom.
Byron Katie

Byron Katie
If someone says, Katie, you are out of order, over something I've said, or, Katie, you are wrong, if I defend myself or justify myself, then I have just started the war.
Byron Katie
Nothing terrible has ever happened except in our thinking. Reality is always good, even in situations that seem like nightmares. The story we tell is the only nightmare that we have lived.
Byron Katie
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
The pain shows you what's left to investigate.
Byron Katie
Everything that happens is God's will. When you realize that, you're home free.
Byron Katie
A dishonest yes is a no to yourself.
Byron Katie
I use the word inquiry as synonymous with The Work...Inquiry is a way to end confusion and to experience internal peace, even in a world of apparent chaos. Above all else, inquiry is about realizing that all the answers we ever need are always available inside us.
Byron Katie
God, as I use the word, is another name for what is. I always know God's intention: It's exactly what is in every moment.
