Carlos Castaneda
“Forget the self and you will fear nothing, in whatever level or awareness you find yourself to be.”
Carlos Castaneda, The Active Side of Infinity

Huston Smith
“Practice giving things away, not just things you don't care about, but things you do like. Remember, it is not the size of a gift, it is its quality and the amount of mental attachment you overcome that count. So don't bankrupt yourself on a momentary positive impulse, only to regret it later. Give thought to giving. Give small things, carefully, and observe the mental processes going along with the act of releasing the little thing you liked. (53)
(Quote is actually Robert A F Thurman but Huston Smith, who only wrote the introduction to my edition, seems to be given full credit for this text.)”
Huston Smith, The Tibetan Book of the Dead, Liberation Through Understanding the Between

“It is useful to study different traditions in order to be free of attachment to any one way of expressing what is beyond expression. (x)”
Ravi Ravindra, The Wisdom of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras: A New Translation and Guide

A.A. Milne
“Piglet noticed that even though he had a Very Small Heart, it could hold a rather large amount of Gratitude.”
A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh

Simone Weil
“Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached. ”
Simone Weil
