If you want to meet someone who can fix any situation you don't like, who can bring you happiness in spite of what other people say or believe, look in a mirror, then say this magic word: 'Hello.'

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
I relax my body completely, relax my mind completely, and then imagine myself at a level where anything can happen.
Richard Bach
Image
If it's never our fault, we can't take responsibility for it. If we can't take responsibility for it, we'll always be its victim.
Richard Bach
Image
Reality lies far beyond space and time, and I need to know why.
Richard Bach
Image
Part of us is always the observer, and no matter what, it observes. It watches us. It does not care if we are happy or unhappy, if we are sick or well, if we live or die. It’s only job is to sit there on our shoulder and pass judgment on whether we are worthwhile human beings.

We're all the sons of God, or children of the Is, or ideas of the Mind, or however else you want to say it.
Richard Bach

Listen to what you know instead of what you fear.
Richard Bach
Image
You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it come true. You may have to work for it, however.
Richard Bach
Image
You seek problems because you need their gifts.
Richard Bach
Image
A writer, or a beginning writer, is faced by the huge walls of self-consciousness. Most people think, What if I say the wrong thing? What if I don't sound erudite and sophisticated? I'll be considered a fool. In time, with a lot of practice, you realize that's your foolishness is your gift.
Richard Bach
Image
I don't think creativity is mine to maintain. It automatically comes when we declare that I am an expression of life, and life will express itself through me in the most playful and wonderful of ways, if I let it.
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
I AM! YOU ARE! AND LOVE: IS ALL: THAT MATTERS!
Richard Bach
Image
We love action and adventure, but we use it to go out and start wars and kill people.
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
When you dream, all the scenery, characters, events, perils, and outcomes are built from your own consciousness, the darks and oppressions as well as the delights. Same with the world awake, though it takes you longer to build it.

As you believe, so it is for you.
