A Wordsmith's Work

"When we love, we always strive to become better than we are.
When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too."

"There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure."

"The world's greatest lie: At a certain point in our lives we lose control of what's happening to us and our lives become controlled by fate."

"It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting."

"Before a dream is realized, the Soul of the World tests everything that was learned along the way. It does this not because it is evil, but so that we can, in addition to realizing our dreams, master the lessons we’ve learned as we’ve moved toward that dream. That’s the point at which, as we say in the language of the desert, one ‘dies of thirst just when the palm trees have appeared on the horizon."

"Every search begins with beginner’s luck. And every search ends with the victor’s being severely tested."

"Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. "

"Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own."

"No matter what he does, every person on earth plays a central role in the history of the world. And normally he doesn't know it."

"Making a decision was only the beginning of things. When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision."

"One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving."

"People need not fear the unknown if they are capable of achieving what they need and want. We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it's our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same Hand."

"Because I don't live in either my past or my future. I'm interested only in the present. If you can concentrate always on the present, you'll be a happy man"

"When a person really desires something, all the universe conspires in helping you to acheive it." [You haven't read the book and still this line rings a bell??]
