We are limited, not by our abilities, but by our vision.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart.

If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up people to collect wood and don’t assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea.

We are here to abet creation and to witness it, to notice each thing so each thing gets noticed.  Together we notice not only each mountain shadow and each stone on the beach, but we notice each other’s beautiful face and complex nature so that creation need not play to an empty house.

Luke, you’re going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.

Failed plans should not be interpreted as a failed vision. Visions don’t change, they are only refined. Plans rarely stay the same and are scrapped or adjusted as needed. Be stubborn about the vision, but flexible with your plan.

What will mess you up most in life is the picture in your head of how it is supposed to be.

Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart.  Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.

Vision without action is a daydream.  Action without vision is a nightmare.

Vision looks inward and becomes duty.  Vision looks outward and becomes aspiration.  Vision looks upward and becomes faith.
