More quotes by 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
It’s not when you start that makes your success in the world, but when you quit.
Richard Bach
Image
We know nothing until intuition agrees.
Richard Bach
Image
Reality lies far beyond space and time, and I need to know why.
Richard Bach
Image
The highest art form of all is a human being in control of himself and his airplane in flight, urging the spirit of a machine to match his own.
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.

We love action and adventure, but we use it to go out and start wars and kill people.
Richard Bach
Image
One challenge of our adventure on earth is to rise above dead systems...wars, nations, destructions...to refuse to be a part of them, and express the highest selves we know how to be.
Richard Bach
Image
In the path of our happiness shall we find the learning for which we have chosen this lifetime.
Richard Bach
Image
He who argues for his limitations gets to keep them
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
When you're flying, an airplane doesn't care who you are it doesn't care how much money you make or don't make. All it cares about is: How well do you fly? How well do you know the airplane? How well do you know the sky?
Richard Bach
Image
We [Americans] are game-playing, fun-loving creatures we are the otters of the universe.
Richard Bach
Image
We design our lives through the power of choices.
Richard Bach
Image
My way of writing a book is completely disorganized - to hurl myself at the problem, over and over.
Richard Bach
Image
Why fly? Simple. I'm not happy unless there's some room between me and the ground.
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.

I AM! YOU ARE! AND LOVE: IS ALL: THAT MATTERS!
