"Can a dream be wrong? Aren't dreams God's way of telling you things?"

"I know that pain is the most important thing in the universes. Greater than survival, greater than love, greater even than the beauty it brings about. For without pain, there can be no pleasure. Without sadness, there can be no happiness. Without misery there can be no beauty. And without these, life is endless, hopeless, doomed and damned. Adult. You have become adult."

"If you live in a past dream, you don't enjoy what is happening right now because you will always wish it to be different than it is.

This leads to self pity, suffering and tears."

"Always be like a water. Float in the times of pain or dance like waves along the wind which touches its surface."

"She might be without country, without nation, but inside her there was still a being that could exist and be free, that could simply say I am without adding a this, or a that, without saying I am Indian, Guyanese, English, or anything else in the world."

"You are the beloved conscious reflection of this universe. You are here to enjoy the beauty and joy of life."

"If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?"

"I am not a teacher, but an awakener."

"I don't trust people who don't love themselves and tell me, 'I love you.' ... There is an African saying which is: Be careful when a naked person offers you a shirt."
