More quotes by Byron Katie
I shouldn't steal in this world.
Byron Katie
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
The mind's job is to validate what it thinks.
Byron Katie
Low self-esteem is not possible when you understand the nature of everything. Depression is not possible. The universe is absolutely friendly.
Byron Katie
Place only your kindest thoughts on everything you experience today. Meet yourself.
Byron Katie
That's huge: just to clean up one ecosystem.
Byron Katie
I realized that it's insane to oppose it. When I argue with reality, I lose-but only 100% of the time. How do I know that the wind should blow? It's blowing!
Byron Katie
People try so hard to let go of their negative behaviors and thoughts, and it doesn't work, or it works only for a short time. I didn't let go of my negative thoughts I questioned them, and then they let go of me, and so did my addictions and depression.
Byron Katie
It takes only one person to have a successful relationship.
Byron Katie
When you say or do anything to please, get, keep, influence, or control anyone or anything, fear is the cause and pain is the result.
Byron Katie
My happiness isn't dependent on anyone else's.
Byron Katie
I think that's the trick: wanting what I have.
Byron Katie
Nothing belongs to me. Everything comes and goes. Serenity is an open door.
Byron Katie
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
I used to sleep on the floor next to the bed, because I believed that I didn't even deserve a bed to sleep in. And then, one morning, a cockroach crawled onto my leg. I looked at it, and suddenly I awoke from a kind of hypnotic trance in which I had been all my life.
Byron Katie
It's just a constant thing when the mind starts to wake up to itself.
Byron Katie
Do you want to be right more than you want to know the truth? It's the truth that set me free. Acceptance, peace, and less attachment to a world of suffering are all effects of doing The Work. They're not the goals. Do The Work for the love of freedom, for the love of truth.
Byron Katie
Arguing with reality it like trying to teach a cat to bark.
Byron Katie
Who would you be without your story?
Byron Katie
Everyone in your life is a figment of your imagination--ev en you.
