More quotes by Richard Bach
We [people] have a teacher! The teacher is ourselves! We already know everything we need to know - our challenge is to discover that we know it. Turning to gurus, I think, we become guru-dependent, no different from drug-dependent, alcohol-dependent - needing an outside force to control our lives.
Richard Bach
If you're always looking at someone else, trying to imitate them, how can your natural gifts ever emerge?
Richard Bach
Live enough of what you've always dreamed of doing, and there's no room left for feeling bad.
Richard Bach
So this world, I think, and an indefinite number of other worlds of our creation, are also - we're here for fun we're here for learning we're here for remembering who we are, and who we are, are expressions of life so absolutely linked with the life that is, always was, always will be.
Richard Bach
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
Does anybody learn writing, or do they just touch someone who lets them see the power of the deleted word?
Richard Bach
The worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves. We live in denial of what we do, even what we think. We do this because we're afraid.We fear we will not find love,and when we find it we fear we'll lose it. We fear that if we don't have love we will be unhappy.
Richard Bach
You've given up your whole life to be the person you are now. Is it worth it?
Richard Bach
Evolution made civilization steward of this planet. A hundred thousand years later, the steward stood before evolution not helper but destroyer, not healer but parasite. So evolution withdrew its gift, passed civilization by, rescued the planet from intelligence and handed it to love.
Richard Bach
It’s okay is a cosmic truth…It’s okay. If there were nothing here for us to learn, we wouldn’t bother to pay the fare.
Richard Bach
If we want to end this lifetime higher than we began, we can expect an uphill road.
Richard Bach
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
Mistakes - call them unexpected learning experiences.
Richard Bach
Every problem has a gift for you in its hands.
Richard Bach
Shop for security over happiness and we buy it at that price.
Richard Bach
It’s not when you start that makes your success in the world, but when you quit.
Richard Bach
In the path of our happiness shall we find the learning for which we have chosen this lifetime.
Richard Bach
Your whole body, from wingtip to wingtip, Jonathan would say, other times, is nothing more than your thought itself, in a form you can see. Break the chains of your thought, and you break the chains of your body, too.
Richard Bach
In order to win, you must expect to win.
Richard Bach
You teach best that which you need most to learn.
