More quotes by Peter McWilliams
Meditation creates more time than it takes.
Peter McWilliams
If you want physical peace, stop the struggle of life. Don't push the body beyond its fatigue point. Rest the body enough. Exercise it enough. Then let it be. ... If you want peace with others, don't fight them. Go your own way. Live your own life. If some walk with you, fine.
Peter McWilliams

Peter McWilliams
Laughter is essential to our equilibrium, to our well-being, to our aliveness. If we're not well, laughter helps us get well. If we are well, laughter helps us stay that way.
Peter McWilliams
To affirm is to make firm.
Peter McWilliams
We can consciously end our life almost anytime we choose. This ability is an endowment, like laughing and blushing, given to no other animal... in any given moment, by not exercising the option of suicide, we are choosing to live
Peter McWilliams
Contrary to popular belief, a good number of transvestites-both male and female-are also heterosexual. Just because they want to get dressed up like the opposite sex does not necessarily mean they want to go to bed with the same sex. Some have successful heterosexual marriages & enjoy the most delightful shopping experiences.
Peter McWilliams
You can't afford the luxury of a negative thought
Peter McWilliams
Do what you love and the necessary resources will follow.
Peter McWilliams
By pursuing any one of our dreams, we can find fulfillment. We don't need to pursue them all.
Peter McWilliams
Many people weigh the guilt, they will feel against the pleasure of the forbidden action they want to take.
Peter McWilliams
To the degree we can live without the things of this world, we are wealthy.
Peter McWilliams
If you were arrested for being kind to yourself..would there be enough evidence to convict you?
Peter McWilliams
Guilt is anger directed at ourselves.
