Byron Katie Is Quotations

The greatest stock market you can invest in is yourself. Finding this truth is better than finding a gold mine.

Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you.

Everyone in your life is a figment of your imagination--ev en you.

I've heard people say that they cling to their painful thoughts because they're afraid that without them they wouldn't be activists for peace. “If I feel peaceful,” they say, “why would I bother taking action at all?” My answer is “Because that's what love does.” To think that we need sadness or outrage to motivate us to do what's right is insane. As if the clearer and happier you get, the less kind you become. As if when someone finds freedom, she just sits around all day with drool running down her chin. My experience is the opposite. Love is action.

You might believe that it's only for their own good, but how does it feel when you try to manipulate the people you love? Are you teaching them that your love is conditional? Maybe through inquiry we can find another way.

The ego is terrified of the truth. And the truth is that the ego doesn't exist.

Life is the constant opportunity to wake up.

Love is action. It's clear, it's kind, it's effortless, and it's irresistible.

Love is worth living. Why do you trade life for less?
