More From Phil McGraw

Oh god, are there so many of them in our land! students who can’t be happy until they’ve graduated, servicemen who can’t be happy until they are discharged, single folks who can’t be happy until they’ve found a mate, workers who can’t be happy until they’ve retired, adolescents who aren’t happy until they’re grown, ill people who aren’t happy until they’re well, failures who aren’t happy until they succeed, restless who can’t wait until they get out of town, and in most cases, vice versa, people waiting, waiting for the world to begin.

All mankind is one volume. when one man dies, a chapter is not torn out of the book, but translated into a better language. and every chapter must be translated. god employs several translators; some pieces are translated by age, some by sickness, some by war, some by justice. but god's hand shall bind up all our scattered leaves again for that library where every book shall live open to one another

You are awareness. awareness is another name for you. since you are awareness there is no need to attain or cultivate it. all that you have to do is to give up being aware of other things, that is of the not-self. if one gives up being aware of them then pure awareness alone remains, and that is the self.

The suppression of uncomfortable ideas may be common in religion or in politics, but it is not the path to knowledge, and there's no place for it in the endeavor of science. we do not know beforehand where fundamental insights will arise from about our mysterious and lovely solar system. the history of our study of our solar system shows us clearly that accepted and conventional ideas are often wrong, and that fundamental insights can arise from the most unexpected sources.

This society in which knowledge workers dominate is in danger of a new "class conflict" between the large minority of knowledge workers and the majority of workers who will make their livings through traditional ways, either by manual work... or by service work. the productivity of knowledge work - still abysmally low - will predictably become the economic challenge of the knowledge society. on it will depend the ability of the knowledge society to give decent incomes, and with them dignity and status, to non knowledge people.

Awareness is observation without choice, condemnation, or justification. awareness is silent observation from which there arises understanding without the experiencer and the experienced. in this awareness, which is passive, the problem or the cause is given an opportunity to unfold itself and so give its full significance. in awareness there is no end in view to be gained, and there is no becoming, the 'me' and the 'mine' not being given the continuity.

Film has become a marketed commodity, and the opportunities and audiences for art cinema have grown smaller. there is a general downturn in cultural literacy, perhaps because of television.

Happiness, the goal to which we all are striving is reached by endeavoring to make the lives of others happy, and if by renouncing the luxuries of life we can lighten the burdens of others.... surely the simplification of our wants is a thing greatly to be desired! and so, if instead of supposing that we must become hermits and dwellers in caves in order to practice simplicity, we set about simplifying our affairs, each according to his own convictions and opportunity, much good will result and the simple life will at once be established.
Happiness Opportunity Simple
To build a better world we need to replace the patchwork of lucky breaks and arbitrary advantages today that determine success--the fortunate birth dates and the happy accidents of history--with a society that provides opportunities for all.
Opportunity Today Happy Accidents
We have a lot of work to do, but we can get there if we work together. women are more than 50 percent of the population and more than 50 percent of voters. we must demand that we all receive 100 percent of the opportunities.
