More quotes by Richard Bach
I’m here not because I am supposed to be here, or because I’m trapped here, but because I’d rather be with you than anywhere else in the world.
Richard Bach
Within each of us lies the power of our consent to health and sickness, to riches and poverty, to freedom and to slavery. It is we who control these, and not another.
Richard Bach
You're never given a dream without the power to make it true.
Richard Bach
Not being known doesn't stop the truth from being true.
Richard Bach
Did you ever feel that you were missing someone you had never met?
Richard Bach
Our soulmate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we're two balloons, and together our direction is up, chances are we've found the right person. Our soulmate is the one who makes life come to life.
Richard Bach
The simplest questions are the most profound. Where were you born? Where is your home? Where are you going? What are you doing? Think about these once in a while and watch your answers change.
Richard Bach
Reality lies far beyond space and time, and I need to know why.
Richard Bach
The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls the butterfly.
Richard Bach
Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?
Richard Bach
I'm a writer as rarely as possible, when forced by an idea too lovely to let die unwritten
Richard Bach
Does anybody learn writing, or do they just touch someone who lets them see the power of the deleted word?
Richard Bach
Nothing happens by chance, my friend... No such thing as luck.
Richard Bach
And behind it lies not blind chance but a principle that works to help us understand, a thousand coincidences and friends come to show us the way when the problem seems too hard to solve alone. Problems for overcoming. Freedom for proving. And, as long as we believe in our dream, nothing by chance.
Richard Bach
Do you ever have the feeling you're a tourist on earth?
Richard Bach
Don't turn away from possible futures before you're certain you don't have anything to learn from them.
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
The airplane is just a bunch of sticks and wires and cloth, a tool for learning about the sky and about what kind of person I am, when I fly. An airplane stands for freedom, for joy, for the power to understand, and to demonstrate that understanding. Those things aren't destructable.
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
Mortalhood is a fine state to visit, but you'd better not call it home.
Richard Bach
