121 " چرا دشوارترین کار در جهان این است که پرنده ای را متقاعد کنی، آزاد است؟ "
― Richard Bach , Jonathan Livingston Seagull
122 " Nothing good is a miracle, nothing lovely is a dream. "
― Richard Bach , Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah
123 " Whatever enchants also guides and protects. "
― Richard Bach , The Bridge Across Forever: A True Love Story
124 " We're the bridge across forever, arching above the sea, adventuring for our pleasure, living mysteries for the fun of it, choosing disasters triumphs challenges impossible odds, testing ourselves over and again, learning love and love and love! "
125 " What matters is how I use what I know, every minute of every day; how I use it to remember, in the midst of the game. "
― Richard Bach , Running from Safety: An Adventure of the Spirit
126 " For most gulls it was not flying that matters, but eating. For this gull, though, it was not eating that mattered, but flight. "
127 " Has it ever happened, you’ve seen a striking film, beautifully written and acted and photographed, that you walk out of the theater glad to be a human being and you say to yourself I hope they make a lot of money from that? I hope the actors, I hope the director earns a million dollars for what they’ve done, what they’ve given me tonight? And you go back and see the movie again and you’re happy to be a tiny part of the system that is rewarding those people with every ticket...the actors I see on the screen, they’ll get twenty cents of this very dollar I’m paying now; they’ll be able to buy an ice cream cone any flavor they want from their share of my ticket alone. Glorious moments in art in books and films and dance, they’re delicious because we see ourselves in glory’s mirror. "
128 " Passionately obsessed by anything we love--an avalanche of magic flattens the way ahead, levels, rules, reasons, dissents, bears us with it over chasms, fears, doubts. Without the power of that love.... "
129 " Most gulls don't bother to learn more than the simplest facts of flight - how to get from shore to food and back again "
130 " It was morning, and the new sun sparkled gold across the ripples of a gentle sea. "
131 " Why had such a promising world been crucified on the tree of obligation, thorned by duties, hanged by hypocrisy, smothered by customs? "
132 " The only obligation we have in any lifetime is to be true to ourselves. "
133 " You don’t want a million answers as much as you want a few forever questions. The questions are diamonds you hold in the light. Study a lifetime and you see different colors from the same jewel. The same questions, asked again, bring you just the answers you need just the minute you need them. "
134 " Happiness is a choice. It is not always an easy one. "
135 " Anything we need to know, we can learn it from a book. Reading, careful study, a little practice, and we’re throwing knives expertly, overhauling engines, speaking Esperanto like natives. "
136 " ¡Si nuestra amistad depende de cosas como el espacio y el tiempo, entonces, cuando por fin superemos el espacio y el tiempo, habremos destruido nuestra propia hermandad! Pero supera el espacio, y nos quedará sólo un Aquí. Supera el tiempo, y nos quedará sólo un Ahora. Y entre el Aquí y el Ahora, ¿no crees que podremos volver a vernos un par de veces? "
137 " Fear not, nor be dismayed at the appearance that is darkness, at the disguise that is evil, at the empty cloak that is death, for you have picked these for your challenges. They are stones on which you choose to whet the keen edge of your spirit. "
― Richard Bach , One
138 " Why? What is so wonderful about mass murder that nobody in the history of the world has ever fond any smarter solution to problems than killing everybody who doesn’t agree? Is that the limit of human intelligence? "
139 " What a delighted fascination it is, to stand aside and watch our dearest friend perform on stage without us. "
140 " And behind it lies not blind chance but a principle that works to help us understand, a thousand "coincidences" and friends come to show us the way when the problem seems too hard to solve alone. Problems for overcoming. Freedom for proving. And, as long as we believe in our dream, nothing by chance. "
― Richard Bach , Nothing by Chance
