[Warning- spiritual stuff!]: Quotes from "Illusions, The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah"

What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.

Don't be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before you can meet again. And meeting again, after moments or lifetimes, is certain for those who are friends.

I do not exist to impress the world. I exist to live my life in a way that will make me happy.

Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself.

This is a test to see if your mission in this life is complete, if you are alive, it isn't.

We teach best what we most need to learn.

The best way to avoid responsibility is to say, 'I've got
responsibilities.

Live never to be ashamed if anything you do or say is published around the world -- even if what is published is not true.

Amazing. You were so attached to it, and it still disappeared for you."
Attached! I was whocking that cloud with everything I had! Fireballs, laser beams, vacuum cleaner a block high...

How easy it is to be compassionate when it's yourself you see in trouble.

The original sin is to limit the Is. Don't.

You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it however.

But one creature said at last, "I am tired of clinging. Though I cannot see it with my eyes, I trust that the current knows where it is going. I shall let go, and let it take me where it will. Clinging, I shall die of boredom.

The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. Rarely do members of one family grow up under the same roof.
