More quotes by Richard Bach
Wrong turns are as important as right turns. More important, sometimes.
Richard Bach
The best way to avoid responsibility is to say, 'I've got responsibilities.
Richard Bach
Do you ever have the feeling you're a tourist on earth?
Richard Bach
A writer, or a beginning writer, is faced by the huge walls of self-consciousness. Most people think, What if I say the wrong thing? What if I don't sound erudite and sophisticated? I'll be considered a fool. In time, with a lot of practice, you realize that's your foolishness is your gift.
Richard Bach
Your whole body, from wingtip to wingtip, Jonathan would say, other times, is nothing more than your thought itself, in a form you can see. Break the chains of your thought, and you break the chains of your body, too.
Richard Bach
Reputation is what people think you are. Character is who you really are. Take care of your character and your reputation will take care of itself. The more I want to get something done, the less I call it work.
Richard Bach
Everything you've said, everything you want to believe is already true. You may not find some of it for a while, and some of it might take longer than that, but that doesn't stop it from being true this minute!
Richard Bach
There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in its hands. You seek problems because you need their gifts.
Richard Bach

Richard Bach
It had never gotten old for him, flying. Never gone boring. Every engine start was a new adventure, guiding the spirit of a lovely machine back into life every takeoff blending his spirit with its own to do what's never been done in history, to lift away from the ground and fly.
Richard Bach
There is something to astrology for those who believe in astrology, as there is something to medicine for those who believe in medicine. Every system works when we give our heart to it.
Richard Bach
Mistakes - call them unexpected learning experiences.
Richard Bach
Isn't it strange how much we know if only we ask ourselves instead of somebody else.
Richard Bach
Laughing on the way to your execution is not generally understood by less-advanced life forms, and they call you crazy.
Richard Bach
We love action and adventure, but we use it to go out and start wars and kill people.
Richard Bach
Within each of us lies the power of our consent to health and sickness, to riches and poverty, to freedom and to slavery. It is we who control these, and not another.
Richard Bach
With every decision that anyone makes, the world changes. The decision that we give our consent to is the one that remains in our consciousness, but the one that we didn't make-that alternate world goes on in its own direction. So there's uncountable numbers of alternate us-es.
Richard Bach
It's like a pulsar inside me. There is this great burst of energy, forcing me to write, and then the star goes quiet for a time, and I think it's gone, but it's gathering energy for another burst. And I seem to be almost unwilling participants in this.
Richard Bach
Mortalhood is a fine state to visit, but you'd better not call it home.
Richard Bach
Any powerful idea is absolutely fascinating and absolutely useless until we choose to use it.
