More quotes by Richard Bach
Know that ever about you stands the reality of love, and each moment you have the power to transform your world by what you have learned.
Richard Bach
I was a microscopic life-form, infinitely large, stumbled backstage of its playhouse, caught a nanosecond glance of its own reality and nearly vaporized in shock.
Richard Bach
And like no other sculpture in the history of art, the dead engine and dead airframe come to life at the touch of a human hand, and join their life with the pilot's own.
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
This kind of thinking, he found, is not the way to make one's self popular with other birds. Even his parents were dismayed as Jonathan spent whole days alone, making hundreds of low-level glides, experimenting.
Richard Bach
Life's battles don't always go to the strongest or fastest sooner or later those who win are those who think they can.
Richard Bach
Fly free and happy beyond birthdays and across forever, and we'll meet now and then when we wish, in the midst of the one celebration that never can end.
Richard Bach
One of the cosmic laws, I think, is that whatever we hold in our thought will come true in our experience.
Richard Bach
Then be sure of one thing: The Is has imagined it quite a bit better than you have. The original sin is to limit the Is. Don't.
Richard Bach
Reason and intellect are opening wedges in an understanding of reality.
Richard Bach
Never had I understood that I command, with absolute authority, the ship of my life! I decide its mission and rules and discipline, at my word waits every tool and sail, every cannon, the strength of every soul on board. I'm master of a team of passionate skills to sail me through hell's own jaws the second I nod the direction to steer.
Richard Bach
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
How much to learn if we could spend one hour, spend twenty minutes, with the us we will become! How much could we say to the us we were.
Richard Bach
Thought plus belief equals manifestation.
Richard Bach
Part of us is always the observer, and no matter what, it observes. It watches us. It does not care if we are happy or unhappy, if we are sick or well, if we live or die. It’s only job is to sit there on our shoulder and pass judgment on whether we are worthwhile human beings.
Richard Bach
If it's never our fault, we can't take responsibility for it. If we can't take responsibility for it, we'll always be its victim.
Richard Bach
It doesn’t take time to change once you understand the problem...Somebody hands you a rattlesnake, it doesn’t take long to drop it, does it?
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
Don't turn away from possible futures before you're certain you don't have anything to learn from them.
Richard Bach
No one does anything uncharacteristic of who they are.
Richard Bach
