Quote from Dan Millman:
It may be true that the unexamined life is not worth living—but neither is the unlived life worth examining.
Simimal Quotes:
Dan Millman
You haven't yet opened your heart fully, to life, to each moment. The peaceful warrior's way is not about invulnerability, but absolute vulnerability--to the world, to life, and to the Presence you felt. All along I've shown you by example that a warrior's life is not about imagined perfection or victory; it is about love. Love is a warrior's sword; wherever it cuts, it gives life, not death.
Dan Millman
If you desire to dig a well to reach water, your efforts are more fruitful if you dig one 100-foot-deep hole than if you dig ten holes each 10 feet deep.
Dan Millman
When you sit, sit. When you stand, stand. Whatever you do, don't wobble.
Dan Millman
Do you have the courage for it? Do you have the love? If you have enough of one, you will develop the other.
Dan Millman
When running up a hill, it is all right to give up as many times as you wish--as long as your feet keep on moving.
Dan Millman
When we feel stuck, going nowhere--even starting to slip backward--we may actually be backing up to get a running start.
Dan Millman
Find the heart of it. Make the complex simple, and you can achieve mastery.
Dan Millman
If you don't get what you want, you suffer; if you get what you don't want, you suffer; even when you get exactly what you want, you still suffer because you can't hold on to it forever. Your mind is your predicament. It wants to be free of change. Free of pain, free of the obligations of life and death. But change is a law, and no amount of pretending will alter that reality.
Dan Millman
Don't be like the preacher who thought about praying while making love with his life and thought about love while praying.
Dan Millman
Moderation? It's mediocrity, fear, and confusion in disguise. It's the devil's dilemma. It's neither doing nor not doing. It's the wobbling compromise that makes no one happy. Moderation is for the bland, the apologetic, for the fence-sitters of the world afraid to take a stand. It's for those afraid to laugh or cry, for those afraid to live or die. Moderation...is lukewarm tea, the devil's own brew.
Dan Millman
As poet-philosopher Rabindranath Tagore reminds us, “We cannot cross the sea merely by staring at the water.” Simplicity has power. And living on purpose comes to this: Just do it. How much simpler can we get?
