Anthony de Mello Ideas Quotations

We're crazy, We're living on crazy ideas about love, about relationships, about happiness, about joy, about everything.

The only way someone can be of help to you is in challenging your ideas. If you're ready to listen and if you're ready to be challenged, there's one thing that you can do, but no one can help you. What is this most important thing of all? It's called self-observation.

The only way that someone can be of help to you is by challenging your ideas.

Drop your false ideas. See through people. If you see through yourself, you will see through everyone. Then you will love them. Otherwise you spend the whole time grappling with your wrong notions of them, with your illusions that are constantly crashing against reality.

You are never in love with anyone. You're only in love with your prejudiced and hopeful idea of that person.

People kill for money or for power. But the most ruthless murderers are those who kill for their ideas.
