"Each life involves an essential errand; not simply the task of survival, but a life-mission embedded in the soul from the beginning."

"Inside each one of us there is a mostly hidden, mostly golden, mostly eternal image or aspect of being, similar to the gold that is buried in the earth. We are the earthlings, the children of the earth, and therefore we are a replica, in a sense, of the earth itself. One of the ideas that is important is: As above, so below. As outside, so within."

"Fate and destiny are close woven within us and near them can be found the true genius of our lives."

"The real education is when you awaken and nourish and guide the inner spirit, this inner genius. The community grows from the giving of the gifts of the people in it, which is really giving from the genius."
