If you focus your awareness only upon your own rightness, then you invite the forces of opposition to overwhelm you  (On Your Own Quotes) When you’re five and you hurt, you make a big noise in the world. At ten you whimper. But by the time you make fifteen you begin to eat the poisoned apples that grow on your own inner tree of pain  (On Your Own Quotes) The flip side of freedom is this: When you’re completely free, you’re also completely on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) He reached for her and kissed her.

Once you leave, we’ll have to send some of the guards with you. You’ll never survive on your own, poor thing  (On Your Own Quotes) You can survive on your own; you can grow strong on your own; you can prevail on your own; but you cannot become human on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) Of course. That’s what people do in a disordered world, a world of freedom and choice: they leave when they want. They disappear, they come back, they leave again. And you are left to pick up the pieces on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) If you find from your own experience that something is a fact and it contradicts what some authority has written down, then you must abandon the authority and base your reasoning on your own findings  (On Your Own Quotes) Flow is an optimal state in which you feel totally engaged in an activity... In a state of flow, you’re neither bored nor anxious, and you don’t question your own adequacy. Hours pass without your noticing  (On Your Own Quotes) The biggest price you pay for love is that you have to have somebody around, you can’t be on your own, wich is always so much better  (On Your Own Quotes) You get your confidence and intuition back by trusting yourself, by being militantly on your own side... Don’t look at your feet to see if you are doing it right. Just dance  (On Your Own Quotes) To be an individual is the hardest thing in the world, because nobody likes you to be an individual. Everybody wants to kill your individuality and to make a sheep out of you. Nobody wants you to be on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) What! Get to heaven on your own strength? Why, you might as well try to climb to the moon on a rope of sand!  (On Your Own Quotes) You know that you are a teacher when you spend more money on school stuff than you do on your own children  (On Your Own Quotes) Grace means you’re in a different universe from where you had been stuck, when you had absolutely no way to get there on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that is your own self. So you have to begin there, not outside, not on other people. That comes afterwards, when you have worked on your own corner  (On Your Own Quotes) If you can, you will quickly find that the greatest rate of return you will earn is on your own personal spending. Being a smart shopper is the first step to getting rich  (On Your Own Quotes) Without frustration you will not discover that you might be able to do something on your own. We grow through conflict  (On Your Own Quotes) I loved working when I worked at commercial art and they told you what to do and how to do it and all you had to do was correct it and they’d say yes or no. The hard thing is when you have to dream up the tasteless things to do on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) It’s the worst when you’re kissing someone who’s not a good kisser, and you’re trying to make it look good, but you feel like you’re just working on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) I have such admiration for single mothers. I simply don’t comprehend how you’d cope with that intensity, the lack of breaks, ever, on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) When you live on your own for a long time, however, your personality changes because you go so much into yourself you lose the ability to be social, to understand what is and isn’t normal behavior. There is an entire world inside yourself, and if you let yourself, you can get so deep inside it you will forget the way to the surface. Other people keep our souls alive, just like food and water does with our body  (On Your Own Quotes) Above all, avoid lies, all lies, especially the lie to yourself. Keep watch on your own lie and examine it every hour, every minute. And avoid contempt, both of others and of yourself: what seems bad to you in yourself is purified by the very fact that you have noticed it in yourself. And avoid fear, though fear is simply the consequence of every lie. Never be frightened at your own faintheartedness in attaining love, and meanwhile do not even be very frightened by your own bad acts  (On Your Own Quotes) The larger the group, the more toxic, the more of your beauty as an individual you have to surrender for the sake of group thought. And when you suspend your individual beauty you also give up a lot of your humanity. You will do things in the name of a group that you would never do on your own. Injuring, hurting, killing, drinking are all part of it, because you’ve lost your identity, because you now owe your allegiance to this thing that’s bigger than you are and that controls you  (On Your Own Quotes) The trouble with steeling yourself against the harshness of reality is that the same steel that secures your life against being destroyed secures your life also against being opened up and transformed by the holy power that life itself comes from. You can survive on your own. You can grow strong on your own. You can even prevail on your own. But you cannot become human on your own  (On Your Own Quotes) Trust is not about being comfortable. It is about being willing to move beyond your comfort zone when there is absolutely no evidence you will be supported. Think of it this way. Trust is based on your ability to stand your ground and rely on your own abilities, knowing that no matter what happens, you will be better off than you were in the beginning  (On Your Own Quotes) Will you resist the temptation to get a government handout for your community? Realize that the doctor’s fight against socialized medicine is your fight. We can’t socialize the doctors without socializing the patients. Recognize that government invasion of public power is eventually an assault upon your own business  (On Your Own Quotes)
