Live enough of what you've always dreamed of doing, and there's no room left for feeling bad.
Richard Bach
Image
It had never gotten old for him, flying. Never gone boring. Every engine start was a new adventure, guiding the spirit of a lovely machine back into life every takeoff blending his spirit with its own to do what's never been done in history, to lift away from the ground and fly.
Richard Bach
Image
Live never to be ashamed if anything you say or do is published around the world, even if what is said is not true.
Richard Bach
Image
The worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves.
Richard Bach
Image
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

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
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.

I was a microscopic life-form, infinitely large, stumbled backstage of its playhouse, caught a nanosecond glance of its own reality and nearly vaporized in shock.
Richard Bach
Image
Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody's going to know whether you did it or not. Sooner or later, those who win are those who think they can.
Richard Bach
Image
You don't love hatred and evil, of course. You have to practice and see the real gull, the good in every one of them, and to help them see it in themselves. That's what I mean by love.
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
Two words: Love leads. Listen to that ring of love within. If we follow that leading of love we'll be guaranteed an adventurous, positive, joyful life.
Richard Bach
Image
Life's battles don't always go to the strongest or fastest sooner or later those who win are those who think they can.
Richard Bach
Image
In order to live free and happily you must sacrifice boredom. It is not always an easy sacrifice.
Richard Bach
Image
We know nothing until intuition agrees.
Richard Bach
Image
Your life is a treasure and you are so much more than you know.
Richard Bach
Image
Flying prevails whenever a man and his airplane are put to a test of maximum performance.
Richard Bach
Image
It's like a pulsar inside me. There is this great burst of energy, forcing me to write, and then the star goes quiet for a time, and I think it's gone, but it's gathering energy for another burst. And I seem to be almost unwilling participants in this.

What a delighted fascination it is, to stand aside and watch our dearest friend perform on stage without us.
