Carlos Castaneda Life Quotations

What is a truthful life? A life lived with deliberateness, a good, strong life.

For me the world is weird because it is stupendous, awesome, mysterious, unfathomable; my interest has been to convince you that you must assume responsibility for being here, in this marvelous world, in this marvelous desert, in this marvelous time.

Theres no emptiness in the life of a warrior. Everything is filled to the brim. Everything is filled to the brim, and everything is equal.
