Quote

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.

The worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves.
Richard Bach
Image
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
Image
How is it we’re the lucky ones, living a life that the children-we-were took for dreams?
Richard Bach
Image
All of us are called by something in this world that attracts us. And it doesn't matter what it is - you can be an engine mechanic or an aviator or you can be someone who loves their flower garden or the world of commerce or sailboats.
Richard Bach
Image
Fail at love, and the other tests don't matter.
Richard Bach
Image
You've given up your whole life to be the person you are now. Is it worth it?
Richard Bach
Image
He was not bone and feather but a perfect idea of freedom and flight, limited by nothing at all
Richard Bach
Image
Just because somebody drops in on you from another dimension, don't assume they're wiser than you about anything at all, or that they can do anything better than you can do yourself. Discarnate or mortal, what matters about people is what they know.
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
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
Image
Character comes from following our highest sense of right, from trusting ideas without being sure they’ll work.
Richard Bach
Image
You are not the child of the people you call mother and father, but their fellow-adventurer on a bright journey to understand the things that are.
Richard Bach
Image
Overcome space, and all we have left is Here. Overcome time, and all we have left is Now.
Richard Bach
Image
Wrong turns are as important as right turns. More important, sometimes.
Richard Bach
Image
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
Image
Like most writers, we like to find what we know and pass it along to anyone who cares. When that's done, as soon as we've said the best we can say, there's nothing else about us that's remotely interesting to anybody else, and we go back behind the walls. We can be intimate in books, we can be intimate in talks, but then we need time to be alone.
Richard Bach
Image
You are led through your lifetime by the inner learning creature, the playful spiritual being that is your real self. Don't turn away from possible futures before you're certain you don't have anything to learn from them. You're always free to change your mind and choose a different future, or a different past.
Richard Bach
Image
Boredom between two people doesn't come from being together physically. It comes from being apart mentally and spiritually.
Richard Bach
Image
Rebuilding us. Isn't that what the spirit requires, when we climb over the wreckage of our lives, sometimes, we go on to make our lives our own affirmation? We are perfect expressions of perfect Love, here and now. There is no permanent injury.
Richard Bach
Image
The only true law is that which leads to freedom.
Richard Bach
