Image
Respect for sovereignity, for privacy, for total independence. Gentle alliances against loneliness, they were, cool rational love-affairs without the love.
Richard Bach
Image
We are each given a block of marble when we begin a lifetime, and the tools to shape it into sculpture... We can drag it behind us untouched, we can pound it into gravel, we can shape it into glory.
Richard Bach
Image
There's so much to learn! And just when we think, I've got it. I really understand what's going on, we're shown a whole new stage set on which to play.
Richard Bach
Image
You are always free to change your mind and choose a different future, or a different past.
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
No one does anything uncharacteristic of who they are.

I like that you can open up any one of my books anywhere and immediately be lost. I just love them so much.
Richard Bach
Image
Books arent written on whim or promises. Books are written on years turned inside out by ideas that never let go until you get them in print, and even then writings a last resort, a desperate ransom you pay to get your life back.
Richard Bach
Image
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
Image
Every problem has a gift for you in its hands.
Richard Bach
Image
Your whole body, from wingtip to wingtip, Jonathan would say, other times, is nothing more than your thought itself, in a form you can see. Break the chains of your thought, and you break the chains of your body, too.
Richard Bach
Image
Nothing happens by chance, my friend... No such thing as luck.
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
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
Look in the mirror and one thing is sure: what we see is not who we are.
Richard Bach
Image
Listen to what you know instead of what you fear.
Richard Bach
Image
Flying prevails whenever a man and his airplane are put to a test of maximum performance.
Richard Bach
Image
With every decision that anyone makes, the world changes. The decision that we give our consent to is the one that remains in our consciousness, but the one that we didn't make-that alternate world goes on in its own direction. So there's uncountable numbers of alternate us-es.
Richard Bach
Image
You are life, inventing form. No more can you die on sword or years than you can die on doorways through which you walk, one room into another. Every room gives its word for you to speak, every passage its song for you to sing.

Not being known doesn't stop the truth from being true.
