We have no greater Friend in life than that small part of us that loves what is True. The more we are able to recognize and honor the fact of this matter, the more powerfully does this interior Friend step forward... And prove to us the value of our love for it.

Getting caught up in a mad rush feels like the natural solution whenever you're running late; but, in truth, all this frantic state really does is hide the lower level of self whose love of feeling anxious always finds a way to make its wish come true.

It's always the right time to discover something new and true about your own nature, even if, in that moment, what you've uncovered seems altogether wrong.

No true action ever has to justify itself, which means that even if you can whip up a hundred good reasons for treating someone badly, it still does nothing to change the simple fact that... you've acted wrongly.

The first step towards being "right" with the Divine begins with seeing that nothing wrong can happen to your True Self.

Nothing makes less of us than trying to be more than whatever the present moment asks us to be... regardless of its nature.

Dyed-in-the-wool alcoholics don't care whether they get their next buzz from a $5 or $500 bottle of bourbon. In much the same way, our lower nature -- that loves and lives only for some kind of sensation -- drinks without discrimination from whatever 'bottle' is at hand; it cares for one thing, and one thing only: that it might lose itself in yet another temporary titillation.

Only what we are able to see as true within and about ourselves -- that true spiritual self-knowledge born of inner revelation -- is of any real use to us. The rest, whatever one imagines or intellectualizes is useless... sometimes worse.

The greatest, and ultimately the most important quality any of us possess is our love for what is True; and part of that truth includes being able to see that we did not seed this rarest of loves into our own heart. But, as long as we are willing to put this love within us -- still in its seedling form -- before all other desires, the same Truth that planted its Love in us will see its fruitio...

The real crisis is (in) our present level of consciousness, and not in the conditions that serve to reveal it (to us).

Hell is the compulsion of anxiously pursuing pleasures, or struggling to protect self-flattering images each time some contrary movement of life rattles the bars that encase one's imagined heaven.

When it comes to being in a hurry, what difference does it make how fast you can get somewhere when all you find there is the next thing for you to rush through?...
