I don't think any of my books tell the reader anything new. But they do remind, in a time that is strident and screeching about the limitations of this world and all the trouble we can get ourselves into.

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.

Your conscience is the measure of the honesty of your selfishness. Listen to it carefully.

Learning is finding out what you already know. Doing is demonstrating that you know it. Teaching is reminding others that they know just as well as you. You are all learners, doers, teachers.

If we want to end this lifetime higher than we began, we can expect an uphill road.
Richard Bach

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.

Money is a great isolator. In fact, we don't even need to have money or make money, we only need to be perceived as having money to be isolated in the strangest ways from most of the community around us. It reaches the point where a person with money spends a great deal of time reacting to people who are reacting to the money.

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.'
Richard Bach

We love action and adventure, but we use it to go out and start wars and kill people.
Richard Bach

It’s okay is a cosmic truth…It’s okay. If there were nothing here for us to learn, we wouldn’t bother to pay the fare.
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.

You are always free to change your mind and choose a different future, or a different past.

Civilization... wrecks the planet from seafloor to stratosphere.

When you're flying, an airplane doesn't care who you are it doesn't care how much money you make or don't make. All it cares about is: How well do you fly? How well do you know the airplane? How well do you know the sky?

You choose, you live the consequences. Every yes, no, maybe, creates the school you call your personal experience.

My way of writing a book is completely disorganized - to hurl myself at the problem, over and over.
