“All that we are is the result of what we have thought; what we think we become.”

“All that we ask for is a world where people are treated with respect and dignity. Where women and men are receiving equal opportunities. Where everyone can be themselves within the limits of the law. And, if the law is harming the basic needs of human survival, such as safety and security, then that law must be adjusted. We ask for unity, fairness, and justice.”

“All that we have seen is something of a vast and intricate and lovely universe. There is no particular theological conclusion that comes out of an exercise such as the one we have just gone through. What is more, when we understand something of the astronomical dynamics, the evolution of worlds, we recognize that worlds are born and worlds die, they have lifetimes just as humans do, and therefore that there is a great deal of suffering and death in the cosmos if there is a great deal of life.”

“All that we make and do is shaped by the communities and traditions that contain us, not to mention by money, power, politics, and luck. And even should the artist or scientist think she has extracted herself from the world to stand alone in the studio, a tremendous array of faculties and mind-states may well attend her creativity.”

“All that we need explicitly to note is that, the more the passive attention is relied on, by keeping the material interesting; and the less the kind of attention requiring effort is appealed to; the more smoothly and pleasantly the classroom work goes on.”

“All that worries you will meet if you remain alive, and you will confront it with the weapons you have acquired, those sounds that hurt you is your mind to prevent you from making a bad choice. Change begins when you blame yourself, not when you blame fate, and at the point of chaos you will choose one of two paths: the path of regret, or the path of healing. That day that you claim tomorrow will always be yesterday. Whether you do what you should or not , you'll find yourself facing what you have chosen.”

“All that you are attached to, all that you love, all that you know, someday will be gone. Knowing this, and that the world is your mind which you create, play in, and suffer from, is known as discrimination. Discriminate between the Real and the Unreal, the known is unreal and will come and go so stay with the Unknown, the Unchanging, the Truth.”
