Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
There's a sense of productivity which cripples us terribly. We either have to be doing something worthwile or not. We are back to our little binary male-female code.
Frederick Lenz
To perfect your nature doesn't mean to have some idea of what a perfect person is and to simply be that. That doesn't work.
Frederick Lenz
The problem is with any practice is that it is a practice. That is why people don't win. The reason why people don't win is they get stuck in ideas, habits, and ways of seeing life.
Frederick Lenz
A teacher is not someone you need perpetually. You need them to show you how to get through the doorway but once you get through the doorway, you are on your own.
Frederick Lenz
