Languages are fluffy big pillows stuffed between nations - what others say is muffled and nearly lost in them, and when we speak their grammar we get feathers in our mouth.  It\'s worth it.

Quotes from the same author

To bring anything into your life, imagine that it's already there.
You teach best what you most need to learn.
Allow the world to live as it chooses, and allow yourself to live as you choose.
Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you.
Don't believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding, find out what you already know, and you'll see the way to fly.
