Whatever it is that calls us, that's our path. And as we walk that path, we have a chance to shine forth who we are. It affects other people around us.
Richard Bach
Image
Whatever enchants also guides and protects.
Richard Bach
Image
Your life is a treasure and you are so much more than you know.
Richard Bach
Image
If we must lose wife or husband when we live to our highest right, we lose an unhappy marriage as well, and we gain ourselves. But if a marriage is born between two already self-discovered, what a lovely adventure begins, hurricanes and all.
Richard Bach
Image
Navigate by the same star, unwilling to change, and you find yourself not only off-course but lost.
Richard Bach
Image
My airplane is quiet, and for a moment still an alien, still a stranger to the ground, I am home.
Richard Bach
Image
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
Image
Some choices we live not only once but a thousand times over, remembering them for the rest of our lives.
Richard Bach
Image
I do everything myself, from engine start to engine shutdown. In a war, I will face alone the missiles and the flak and the small-arms fire over the front lines. If I die, I will die alone.
Richard Bach
Image
You are always free to change your mind and choose a different future, or a different past.
Richard Bach
Image
One of the great cosmic laws, I think, is that whatever we hold in our thought will come true in our experience. When we hold something, anything, in our thought, then somehow coincidence leads us in the direction that we've been wishing to lead ourselves.
Richard Bach
Image
What would our lives be like without tests, odds against us, adventure, risk?
Richard Bach
Image
A drug for everything is madness. Legal or not, prescribed or not, over-counter under-counter bought for blood on street-corners-every pill separates us from knowing our own completion and from being taught by what's true.
Richard Bach
Image
Learning is finding out what you already know. Doing is demonstrating that you know it. Teaching is reminding others that they know just as well as you. You are all learners, doers, teachers.
Richard Bach
Image
True enjoy stories never ever have endings.
Richard Bach
Image
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
Image
Character comes from following our highest sense of right, from trusting ideas without being sure they’ll work.
Richard Bach
Image
That’s what learning is, after all not whether we lose the game, but how we lose and how we’ve changed because of it, and what we take away from it that we never had before, to apply to other games. Losing, in a curious way is winning.
Richard Bach
Image
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
Image
We choose our next world through what we learn in this one. Learn nothing, and the next world is the same as this one, all the same limitations and lead weights to overcome.
