As a cell contains a natural intelligence by which it fosters the healthy functioning of the body, I, too, have natural intelligence that fosters the perfect unfolding of my life.

The universe is conspiring in every moment to bring me happiness and peace.

For many, many people, getting married is one of the most important things they will ever do in the pursuit of happiness.

You label somebody 'New Age,' and that's automatic mockery: 'She cannot possibly be a serious thinker.'

The fact that people in Hollywood are open to what I teach is not because they're more desperate than anyone else, but because they're more touched by it. That's not their weakness. It's their strength!

The goal of spiritual practice is full recovery, and the only thing you need to recover from is a fractured sense of self.

Nature is infinitely creative. It is always producing the possibility of new beginnings.

I never thought being famous would be wonderful, but my limited exposure to celebrity has shown me the dark side big-time.

The only work that will ultimately bring any good to any of us is the work of contributing to the healing of the world.

In every community, there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart, there is the power to do it.

Just as you wouldn't leave the house without taking a shower, you shouldn't start the day without at least 10 minutes of sacred practice: prayer, meditation, inspirational reading.

We live in a world of constant juxtaposition between joy that's possible and pain that's all too common. We hope for love and success and abundance, but we never quite forget that there is always lurking the possibility of disaster.

Hope lies in having more faith in the power of God to heal us than in the power of anything to hurt or destroy us. In realizing that as children of God we are bigger than our problems, we have the power at last to confront them.

Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here.

If you give your life as a wholehearted response to love then love will wholeheartedly respond to you.

Nothing liberates our greatness like the desire to help the desire to serve.

Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves to recognize how good things really are.

Love is what we were borne with. Fear is what we learned here.
