Richard Bach
Image
Grief is no more necessary when we understand death than fear is necessary when we understand flying.
Richard Bach
Image

Richard Bach
Image

Richard Bach
Image
He who argues for his limitations gets to keep them
Richard Bach
Image
I AM! YOU ARE! AND LOVE: IS ALL: THAT MATTERS!
Richard Bach
