“Most prayers are not really questions...and if we listen very closely, a prayer is often its own answer. ...We pray because we are here - not to change the world, but to change ourselves. Because it is when we change ourselves...that the world is changed.”
“This world is what we have made of it. If it is ruthless today it is because we have made it ruthless by our attitudes. If we change ourselves we can change the world, and changing ourselves begins with changing our language and methods of communication”
“We must ask ourselves these questions as often as we dare. How will the world change if we do not question it?”
“When we seek to change others to suit our desires we engage in folly, but when we seek to improve ourselves, as an example to others we can change the world.”
“Few of us can actually change the world. We can only change ourselves. But if enough people took that to heart, the world would change.”
“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
