Richard Bach
Image
We design our lives through the power of our choices. We feel most helpless when we've made choices by default, when we haven't designed our lives on our own.
Richard Bach

Your life is a treasure and you are so much more than you know.
Richard Bach
Image
You don't love hatred and evil, of course. You have to practice and see the real gull, the good in every one of them, and to help them see it in themselves. That's what I mean by love.
Richard Bach
Image
Laughing on the way to your execution is not generally understood by less-advanced life forms, and they call you crazy.
Richard Bach
Image
