Quote

Then be sure of one thing: The Is has imagined it quite a bit better than you have. The original sin is to limit the Is. Don't.

Image
I relax my body completely, relax my mind completely, and then imagine myself at a level where anything can happen.
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
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
Image
Fear not, nor be dismayed at the appearance that is darkness, at the disguise that is evil, at the empty cloak that is death, for you have picked these for your challenges. They are stones on which you choose to whet the keen edge of your spirit.
Richard Bach
Image
Look in the mirror and one thing is sure: what we see is not who we are.
Richard Bach
Image
One of the cosmic laws, I think, is that whatever we hold in our thought will come true in our experience.
Richard Bach
Image
Don't be dismayed by good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.
Richard Bach
Image
Anyone desperate enough for suicide... should be desperate enough to go to creative extremes to solve problems: elope at midnight, stow away on the boat to New Zealand and start over, do what they always wanted to do but were afraid to try.
Richard Bach
Image
We design our lives through the power of our choices. We feel most helpless when we've made choices by default, when we haven't designed our lives on our own.
Richard Bach
Image
Reality lies far beyond space and time, and I need to know why.
Richard Bach
Image
I do not enjoy writing at all. If I can turn my back on an idea, out there in the dark, if I can avoid opening the door to it, I won't even reach for a pencil.
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
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
Civilization... wrecks the planet from seafloor to stratosphere.
Richard Bach
Image
Nobody comes to Earth to dodge problems. We come here to take 'em on.
Richard Bach
Image
Did you ever feel that you were missing someone you had never met?
Richard Bach
Image
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
Image
Flying prevails whenever a man and his airplane are put to a test of maximum performance.
Richard Bach
Image
You choose, you live the consequences. Every yes, no, maybe, creates the school you call your personal experience.
Richard Bach
Image
Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?
