More quotes by Richard Bach
We're all the sons of God, or children of the Is, or ideas of the Mind, or however else you want to say it.
Richard Bach
I'm a writer as rarely as possible, when forced by an idea too lovely to let die unwritten
Richard Bach
The worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves. We live in denial of what we do, even what we think. We do this because we're afraid.We fear we will not find love,and when we find it we fear we'll lose it. We fear that if we don't have love we will be unhappy.
Richard Bach
In the path of our happiness shall we find the learning for which we have chosen this lifetime.
Richard Bach
There's so much to learn! And just when we think, I've got it. I really understand what's going on, we're shown a whole new stage set on which to play.
Richard Bach
I'm not a celebrity or near celebrity. Sometimes people will say, You're famous and that stops me right there. What does fame mean? Fame is in the eye of the beholder. So, if somebody wants to call me 'famous', that's their business. I'm just me, a guy who messes around with airplanes and writes books that make sense to him.
Richard Bach
Your life is a treasure and you are so much more than you know.
Richard Bach
Of course I'm a fake. We're all fakes on this whole world, pretending to be something we're not. We are not just bodies walking around, not just atoms, molecules. We are unkillable, undestroyable ideas of the IS, no matter how much we believe otherwise.
Richard Bach
Learning is finding out what you already know.
Richard Bach
There are two tests that we [writers] have for all of our writing: So What? and Who Cares? There is an answer to both. The answer to Who Cares is that a reader cares, if the writing is good. The answer to So What is that these ideas give us completely new understanding, change our sense of who we [people] are and why we're here [on this planet].
Richard Bach
Judge not by the form of the messenger, but the form of the message.
Richard Bach
Every gift from a friend is a wish for your happiness.
Richard Bach
In the United States Christmas has become the rape of an idea.
Richard Bach
Two words: Love leads. Listen to that ring of love within. If we follow that leading of love we'll be guaranteed an adventurous, positive, joyful life.
Richard Bach
The highest art form of all is a human being in control of himself and his airplane in flight, urging the spirit of a machine to match his own.
Richard Bach
Why fly? Simple. I'm not happy unless there's some room between me and the ground.
Richard Bach
Books arent written on whim or promises. Books are written on years turned inside out by ideas that never let go until you get them in print, and even then writings a last resort, a desperate ransom you pay to get your life back.
Richard Bach
Jonathan Seagull discovered that boredom and fear and anger are the reasons that a gull's life is so short, and with those gone from his thought, he lived a long fine life indeed.
Richard Bach
Isn't it strange how much we know if only we ask ourselves instead of somebody else.
Richard Bach
When you dream, all the scenery, characters, events, perils, and outcomes are built from your own consciousness, the darks and oppressions as well as the delights. Same with the world awake, though it takes you longer to build it.
Richard Bach
