Why do you feel so powerless? Go spend an hour with ants. Each of those black specks you see is a life. One whole life that you can save, take, or affect in some way. You have the power to make so many lives better. It is within you. Don’t lose sight of that.

Put down your stones. Why are you breaking the window when God has left the door wide open? If you are afraid, lover, follow me. I will guide the way.

Our daily prayer ought to be: Please universe, help me help myself and help me show others how to help themselves.

May we always be burdened with thinking of the suffering of others, for that is what it means to be human.

Want to help others? Be yourself. You’ll inspire others to muster the courage to be themselves as well.

And then one day you realise that if you want to be rich, you'd have to give away almost everything you own.
