Anthony de Mello Looks Quotations

Look for competence not claims.

As soon as you look at the world through an ideology, you are finished. No reality fits ideology.

If you don't look at things through your concepts, you'll never be bored. Every single thing is unique.

Whatever is truly alive must die. Look at the flowers; only plastic flowers never die.

The way to really live is to die. The passport to living is to imagine yourself in your grave. Imagine you're lying in your coffin....Now look at your problems from that viewpoint. Changes everything, doesn't it?
