"Stepping out and stepping up can be an intimidating experience, especially in social situations where the outcomes are unpredictable and uncertain. Have you ever been reluctant to . . . Say "no?" Request help? Ask for a raise? Stand up to a bully? Talk about tough topics? Confront a friend or spouse? Speak up and share your opinion? Begin a conversation with a stranger? Deliver a presentation or speak in public? Talk about the "white elephant in the room? Befriend people who are much different than you? Make sales calls because you don't want to be rejected? Approach a new group of people at a networking event? Go to an event by yourself where you did not know anyone?"

"Good governance never depends upon laws, but upon the personal qualities of those who govern. The machinery of government is always subordinate to the will of those who administer that machinery. The most important element of government, therefore, is the method of choosing leaders."
Governance
"And the question of Wester religion, Flattery said, "is: What lies beyond death? But the question of the Zen master is: What lies beyond waking?"
Religion
"Religion must remain an outlet for people who say to themselves, 'I am not the kind of person I want to be.' It must never sink into an assemblage of the self-satisfied."

"Most discipline is hidden discipline, designed not to liberate but to limit. Do not ask Why? Be cautious with How? Why? leads inexorably to paradox. How? traps you in a universe of cause and effect. Both deny the infinite."
Philosophy
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone, there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
Courage
"I'm going to rub your faces in things you try to avoid. I don't find it strange that all you want to believe is only that which comforts you. How else do humans invent the traps which betray us into mediocrity? How else do we define cowardice?"
Psychology
"A stone is heavy and the sand is weighty, but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both."

"Religion, too, is a weapon. What manner of weapon is religion when it becomes the government?"

"To be a god can ultimately become boring and degrading. There'd be reason enough for the invention of free will! A god might wish to escape into sleep and be alive only in the unconscious projections of his dream-creatures."
