Thursday Afternoon Quotes

"We live this life to become who we are.  Isn’t this strange?  The challenge is to discover the Truth that replaces the illusion.  The paradox is that there is no challenge.  We already are what we are, in all our completeness.  Therefore we neither become the Truth or discover the Truth; it is a matter of recognition.  We simply recognize the Truth of what already is.”

--D.R. Butler
“The trick is in what one emphasizes.  We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy.  The amount of work is the same.”


--Carlos Castaneda
