"Your whole body, from wingtip to wingtip," Jonathan would say, "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 ..."--Jonathan Livingston Seagull

You are not the child of the people you call your mother and father, but their fellow-adventurer on a bright journey to understand the things that are. --There's No Such Place as Far Away

From time to time it's fun to close our eyes, and in that dark say to ourselves, "I am the sorcerer, and when I open my eyes I shall see a world that I have created, and for which I and only I am completely responsible." Slowly then, eyelids open like curtains lifting stage-center. And sure enough, there is our world, just the way we've built it. --The Bridge Across Forever

You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. --Illusions

To bring anything into your life, imagine that it's already there. --Illusions

...There is such a thing as perfection...and our purpose for living is to find that perfection and show it forth....Each of us is in truth an unlimited idea of freedom. Everything that limits us we have to put aside."--Jonathan Livingston Seagull

"Do you know what I learned from you? I learned what is possible, and now I must hold out for what I thought we had. I want to be very close to someone I respect and admire and have somebody who feels the same way about me. That or nothing. I realized that what I'm looking for is not what you're looking for. You don't want what I want." "What do you think I want?" I asked. "Exactly what you have. Many women you know a little and don't care very much about. Superficial flirtations mutual use, no chance of love. That's my idea of hell. Hell is a place, a time, a consciousness, Richard, in which there is no love. Horrible! Leave me out of it." -- The Bridge Across Forever

Here is the test to find whether your mission on earth is finished. If you're alive, it isn't. --Richard Bach
