“Freedom is also about what you will allow yourself to do.”

“My dear reader, read aloud, if possible! If you do so, allow me to thank you for it: if you not only do it yourself, if you also influence others to do it, allow me to thank each one of them, and you again and again!”

“Once a day allow yourself the freedom to dream…”

“You need to know things the others don't know. It's what no one knows about you that allows you to know yourself.”

“Do not allow yourself to be damaged by yourself.”

“Have strength in yourself always. think and remember not just what you should do, but also what you want to do. (Ageha, Basara, Vol. 13)”

“Accepting means you allow yourself to feel whatever it is you are feeling at that moment…you can't argue with what is. Well, you can, but if you do, you suffer.”

“Give yourself permission to allow this moment to be exactly as it is, and allow yourself to be exactly as you are.”

“If you reveal everything, bare every feeling, ask for understanding, you lose something crucial to your sense of yourself. You need to know things that others don't know. It's what no one knows about you that allows you to know yourself.”

“Regardless of what you may think about yourself or what you have been told about yourself or what you may have been taught to believe about yourself… THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU. THERE NEVER WAS.”
