"Seek and see the marvels all around you. You will get tired of looking at yourself alone, and that fatigue will make you deaf and blind to everything else"
"There is nothing wrong with being afraid. When you fear, you see things in a different way."
"Think about the wonder of Mescalito playing with you. Think about nothing else. The rest will come to you of itself."
"All paths are the same: they lead nowhere. However, a path without a heart is never enjoyable. On the other hand, a path with a heart is easy—it does not make a warrior work at liking it; it makes for a joyful journey; as long as a man follows it, he is one with it."
"Any path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or to others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you . . . Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself, and yourself alone, one question . . . Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn’t it is of no use."
