More quotes by Carlos Castaneda
A warrior seeks to act rather than talk.
Carlos Castaneda
A man of knowledge lives by acting, not by thinking about acting... Thus a man of knowledge sweats and puffs and if one looks at him he is just like an ordinary man, except that the folly of his life is under his control.
Carlos Castaneda
Feeling important makes one heavy, clumsy and vain. To be a warrior one needs to be light and fluid.
Carlos Castaneda
Whenever a warrior decides to do something, he must go all the way, but he must take responsibility for what he does. No matter what he does, he must know first why he is doing it, and then he must proceed with his actions without having doubts or remorse about them.
Carlos Castaneda
You're chained to you reason ... Understanding is only a very small affair, so very small
Carlos Castaneda
Do you know at this very moment you are surrounded by eternity? And do you know that you can use that eternity if you so desire?

We have to balance the lineality of the known universe with the nonlineality of the unknown universe.
Carlos Castaneda
A warrior chooses a path with heart, any path with heart, and follows it and then he rejoices and laughs. He knows because he sees that his life will be over altogether too soon. He sees that nothing is more important than anything else.
Carlos Castaneda
Will is what can make you succeed when your thoughts tell you that you're defeated.
Carlos Castaneda
A warrior lives by acting, not by thinking about acting, nor by thinking about what he will think when he has finished acting.
Carlos Castaneda
Power rests on the kind of knowledge one holds. What is the sense of knowing things that are useless?
Carlos Castaneda
Let's say that when every one of us is born we bring with us a little ring of power. That little ring is almost immediately put to use. So every one of us is already hooked from birth and our rings of power are joined to everyone else's. In other words, our rings of power are hooked to the doing of the world in order to make the world.
Carlos Castaneda
Life in itself is sufficient, self-explanatory and complete.
Carlos Castaneda
Once a man worries, he clings to anything out of desperation and once he clings he is bound to get exhausted or to exhaust whomever or whatever he is clinging to. A warrior-hunter, on the other hand, knows he will lure game into his traps over and over again, so he doesn't worry.
Carlos Castaneda
In a world where death is the hunter, my friend, there is no time for regrets or doubts. There is only time for decisions.
Carlos Castaneda
The only thing we all have in common is that we play tricks in order to force ourselves to abandon the quest. The counter-measure is to persist in spite of all the barriers and disappointments.
Carlos Castaneda
Your problems is that you think you have time.
Carlos Castaneda
A man of knowledge lives by acting, not by thinking about acting.
Carlos Castaneda
Things don't change, only the way you look at them.
