Dan Millman Quotes
« on: April 08, 2009, 08:56:47 AM »
Money is neither my god nor my devil. It is a form of energy that tends to make us more of who we already are, whether it's greedy or loving.

I learned that we can do anything, but we can’t do everything.. at least not at the same time. So think of your priorities not in terms of what activities you do, but when you do them. Timing is everything.

Everything you'll ever need to know is within you; the secrets of the universe are imprinted on the cells of your body. But you haven't learned how to read the wisdom of the body.

Act happy, feel happy, be happy, without a reason in the world. Then you can love, and do what you will.

I have an almost religious zeal... not for technology per se, but for the Internet which is for me, the nervous system of mother Earth, which I see as a living creature, linking up.

If you don't get what you want, you suffer; if you get what you don't want, you suffer; even when you get exactly what you want, you still suffer because you can't hold on to it forever. Your mind is your predicament. It wants to be free of change. Free of pain, free of the obligations of life and death. But change is a law, and no amount of pretending will alter that reality.

Faith means living with uncertainty - feeling your way through life, letting your heart guide you like a lantern in the dark.

~Dan Millman
"A warrior doesn't seek anything for his solace, nor can he possibly leave anything to chance. A warrior actually affects the outcome of events by the force of his awareness and his unbending intent." - don Juan

Some of my faves form the Movie Peaceful Warrior (2006)




Socrates: A warrior does not give up what he loves, he finds the love in what he does


Socrates: I call myself a Peaceful Warrior... because the battles we fight are on the inside


Socrates: Where are you?
Dan Millman: Here.
Socrates: What time is it?
Dan Millman: Now.
Socrates: What are you?
Dan Millman: This moment.


Socrates: There is no starting or stopping - only doing.


Dan Millman: There are no ordinary moments


Socrates: Do you know what's the difference between me and you?
Socrates: You practice gymnastics, I practice everything!
