Pico Iyer on The Art of Stillness

Enlightening Talks

No yesterdays are ever wasted for those who give themselves to today.

Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody’s going to know whether you did it or not.

I believe cats to be spirits come to earth. A cat, I am sure, could walk on a cloud without coming through.

Wherever you are, be there. If you can be fully present now, you’ll know what it means to live.

The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

With our thoughts, we make the world.

It is our choices that show who we truly are, far more than our abilities.

Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.

One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.

If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough.
