“We are game-playing, fun-having creatures, we are the otters of the universe.”
― Richard Bach, Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah

“Rebuilding us. Isn’t that what the spirit requires, when we climb over the wreckage of our lives, sometimes, we go on to make our lives our own affirmation? We are perfect expressions of perfect Love, here and now. There is no permanent injury.”
― Richard Bach, Illusions II: The Adventures of a Reluctant Student

“I wanted to say, for the love of God, if you want freedom, can't you see it's not anywhere outside of you? Say you have it, and you have it! Act as if it is your's, and it is! Richard, what is so damned hard about that? But they didn't hear, most of them. Miracles - like going to auto races to see the crashes, they came to see miracles. First it's frustrating and then after a while it just gets dull. I have no idea how the other messiahs could stand it”

“Happiness is a choice. It is not always an easy one.”
