“Your words have power. [...]
"How are you?"
"Ah - can't complain," or "No use complaining," or "Not too bad."
How does the brain respond to these dreary views?
Is it a "pain in the neck" to do the dishes? Is it "one big headache" to balance your checkbook? Are you "sick and tired" of the weather we are having?
I am convinced that [doctors] owe a large part of their income to the words we use. Remember, the brain is no subtle interpreter. It says, "This guy's asking for a headache. Okay. One headache coming up."
Of course, every time that we say something gives us a pain, a pain does not immediately result. The body's natural state is good health, and all its processes are geared toward health. In time, though, with enough verbal pounding away at its defenses, it delivers up the very illnesses we order.”

“Peace on earth:
It begins within ourselves.
It is a decision that must be made by us, again and again.
Am I trying to be "right" or loving?
Am I feeding the fear or the vision of happiness?
It is so infinitely easy to be led into the hell of the internal war by your doubts and real experiences. But I don't have to do it.
I can choose to open my fists!
I can choose instead to focus on my dreams; visions of kindness, understanding, compassion and loving joy.”
