Quote

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.

What matters is how I use what I know, every minute of every day how I use it to remember, in the midst of the game.
Richard Bach
Image
Of course I'm a fake. We're all fakes on this whole world, pretending to be something we're not. We are not just bodies walking around, not just atoms, molecules. We are unkillable, undestroyable ideas of the IS, no matter how much we believe otherwise.
Richard Bach

Every gift from a friend is a wish for your happiness.
Richard Bach
Image
If we must lose wife or husband when we live to our highest right, we lose an unhappy marriage as well, and we gain ourselves. But if a marriage is born between two already self-discovered, what a lovely adventure begins, hurricanes and all.
Richard Bach
Image
Argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they're yours. Do you think, if you say the word impossible enough times, that difficult things will suddenly become easier for you?
Richard Bach
Image
Humanity is not a gift of nature, it is a spiritual achievement to be earned.
Richard Bach

Rarely do members of the same family grow up under the same roof.
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.
Richard Bach
Image
Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there?
Richard Bach
Image
The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life.
Richard Bach
Image
I think the source of our sorrow and the source of our joy are intimately entwined. Our sorrow is that we have forgotten who we are, we have forgotten we are one with that source of all life - absolutely indestructible, perfect, joyful. The source of our joy is when we remember that.
Richard Bach
Image
Rebuilding us. Isn't that what the spirit requires, when we climb over the wreckage of our lives, sometimes, we go on to make our lives our own affirmation? We are perfect expressions of perfect Love, here and now. There is no permanent injury.
Richard Bach
Image
I do everything myself, from engine start to engine shutdown. In a war, I will face alone the missiles and the flak and the small-arms fire over the front lines. If I die, I will die alone.
Richard Bach
Image
Nothing happens by chance, my friend... No such thing as luck.
Richard Bach
Image
In order to win, you must expect to win.
Richard Bach

We choose our next world through what we learn in this one. Learn nothing, and the next world is the same as this one, all the same limitations and lead weights to overcome.
