As you believe, so it is for you.

It happened over and over again, and the beginner learned - when you start puzzling over an idea, and slowing down on the keys, the writing gets worse and worse.
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
Reality lies far beyond space and time, and I need to know why.
Richard Bach
Image
In the path of our happiness shall we find the learning for which we have chosen this lifetime.
Richard Bach
Image
The only true law is that which leads to freedom.
Richard Bach
Image
Respect for sovereignity, for privacy, for total independence. Gentle alliances against loneliness, they were, cool rational love-affairs without the love.
Richard Bach
Image
Two things I do value a lot, intimacy and the capacity for joy, didn't seem to be on anyone else s list. I felt like the stranger in a strange land, and decided I'd better not marry the natives.
