“The applause of the audience is short-lived. When calls resound for an encore, we are called to direct our attention to our Master.”

“Suffering is our call to attention, our call to investigate the truth of our beliefs.”

“Our lives are the sum of our memories. How much are we willing to lose from our already short lives by … not paying attention?”

“We must do our work for its own sake, not for fortune or attention or applause.”

“When we work creatively and productively with others, our experience of meaning can be profound. When we work directly for the good of others, meaning deepens in ways that reward us beyond measure. Whenever we go beyond satisfying our own personal needs, we enter the realm of what Frankl called "ultimate meaning." some call it connection to a higher self, to God, to our own spirit, to universal consciousness, to love, to the collective good. No matter what it's called, it is deep meaning and it transforms our lives.”

“There will be occasions in each of our lives when we will be called upon to explain or to defend our beliefs. When the time for performance arrives, the time for preparation is past.”
