Some great Quotes from the works of Alan Watts:

"The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.

You don't look out there for God, something in the sky, you look in you

We cannot be more sensitive to pleasure without being more sensitive to pain.

Never pretend to a love which you do not actually feel, for love is not ours to command.

I owe my solitude to other people.

The ego is nothing other than the focus of conscious attention.

No work or love will flourish out of guilt, fear, or hollowness of heart, just as no valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now.

You are that vast thing that you see far, far off with great telescopes.

Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth

You and I are all as much continuous with the physical universe as a wave is continuous with the ocean.
