Carlos Castaneda Quotes

Life in itself is sufficient, self-explanatory and complete.

We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same.

Seek and see all the marvels around you. You will get tired of looking at yourself alone, and that fatigue will make you deaf and blind to everything else. - Don Juan

The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same.

In a world where death is the hunter, my friend, there is no time for regrets or doubts. There is only time for decisions.

Death is the only wise advisor that we have. Whenever you feel, as you always do, that everything is going wrong and you're about to be annihilated, turn to your death and ask if that is so. Your death will tell you that you're wrong; that nothing really matters outside its touch. Your death will tell you, 'I haven't touched you yet.

The dying sun will glow on you without burning, as it has done today. The wind will be soft and mellow and your hilltop will tremble. As you reach the end of your dance you will look at the sun, for you will never see it again in waking or in dreaming, and then your death will point to the south. To the vastness.

Forget the self and you will fear nothing, in whatever level or awareness you find yourself to be.

Nothing is pending in the world…nothing is finished, yet nothing is unresolved…Everything is filled to the brim.
