Guy Finley
Instead of always asking yourself why so-and-so acts this or that way, learn to ask: What's inside of me that wants to hurt itself over how anyone else acts?
Guy Finley
Only you can choose the nature of what grows, or what doesn't, within you.
Guy Finley
The strength of any weakness within us is the degree to which it is feared.
Guy Finley
The only reason your mind won't stop its endless chattering is because you won't stop listening to it!
Guy Finley
We conquer ourselves by learning patience, for she gives to us our longed for victory only in the surrender of self.
Guy Finley
