Richard Bach“Believe you know all the answers, and you know all the answers. Believe you're a master, and you are.”
Richard Bach, Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah“We reviewed the ways we had to bring customers: Method A, flying aerobatics at the edge of town. Method B, the parachute jump. Then we began experimenting with Method C. There is a principle that says if you lay out a lonely solitaire game in the center of the wilderness, someone will soon come along to look over your shoulder and tell you how to play your cards. This was the principle of Method C. We unrolled our sleeping bags and stretched out under the wing, completely uncaring.”
Richard Bach, Nothing by Chance“The simplest questions are the most profound. Where were you born? Where is your home? Where are you going? What are you doing? Think about these once in a while and watch your answers change.”
Richard Bach“Strong beliefs win strong men, and then make them stronger.”
Richard Bach“Here is the test to find whether your mission on Earth is finished: if you're alive, it isn't.”
Richard Bach“To bring anything into your life, imagine that it's already there.”
Richard Bach“One of the great cosmic laws, I think, is that whatever we hold in our thought will come true in our experience. When we hold something, anything, in our thought, then somehow coincidence leads us in the direction that we've been wishing to lead ourselves.”
Richard Bach“Learning is finding out what you already know.”
Richard Bach“There are no mistakes. The events we bring upon ourselves, no matter how unpleasant, are necessary in order to learn what we need to learn; whatever steps we take, they're necessary to reach the places we've chosen to go.”
