It takes only one person to have a successful relationship.

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 love being free enough that I can be so intimate with people, and that people are free enough that we can all be intimate with each other!

You don't get to vote on what is. Have you noticed?
Byron Katie

Affecting the world is obviously possible when we see people in the world who we really love and respect and we see how that they affect our lives.
Byron Katie

Nothing you believe is true. To know this is freedom.
Byron Katie

The miracle of love comes to you in the presence of the uninterpreted moment. If you are mentally somewhere else, you miss real life.
Byron Katie

Joy is a natural way of being.
Byron Katie

The world is what you believe it to be, and it changes as you change.
Byron Katie

When you question what you believe, you leave the world, really, and what the world believes. It puts you in a very interesting position.
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.

Nothing belongs to me. Everything comes and goes. Serenity is an open door.
