Favorite David Richo Quotes

1. "Trust in someone means that we no longer have to protect ourselves. We believe we will not be hurt or harmed by the other, at least not deliberately. We trust his or her good intentions, though we know we might be hurt by the way circumstances play out between us. We might say that hurt happens; it's a given of life. Harm is inflicted; it's a choice some people make." ~ David Richo
2. "Humility means accepting reality with no attempt to outsmart it." ~ David Richo
3. "We do not create our destiny; we participate in its unfolding. Synchronicity works as a catalyst toward the working out of that destiny." ~ David Richo
4. "In a true you-and-I relationship, we are present mindfully, nonintrusively, the way we are present with things in nature.We do not tell a birch tree it should be more like an elm. We face it with no agenda, only an appreciation that becomes participation: 'I love looking at this birch' becomes 'I am this birch' and then 'I and this birch are opening to a mystery that transcends and holds us both." ~ David Richo
5. "In the hero stories, the call to go on a journey takes the form of a loss, an error, a wound, an unexplainable longing, or a sense of a mission. When any of these happens to us, we are being summoned to make a transition. It will always mean leaving something behind,...The paradox here is that loss is a path to gain." ~ David Richo
6. "Our higher needs include making full use of our gifts, finding and fulfilling our calling, being loved and cherished just for ourselves, and being in relationships that honor all of these. Such needs are fulfilled in an atmosphere of the five A's by which love is shown: attention, acceptance, appreciation, affection, and allowing." ~ David Richo
7. "Self-actualization is not a sudden happening or even the permanent result of long effort. The eleventh-century Tibetan Buddhist poet-saint Milarupa suggested: "Do not expect full realization; simply practice every day of your life." A healthy person is not perfect but perfectible, not a done deal but a work in progress. Staying healthy takes discipline, work, and patience, which is why our life is a journey and perforce a heroic one." ~ David Richo
8. "Transference is essentially a compulsion to return to our past in order to clear up emotionally backlogged business." ~ David Richo

10. "It is not that practice makes perfect but that practice is perfect, combining effort with an openness to grace." ~ David Richo
11. "Our wounds are often the openings into the best and most beautiful part of us." ~ David Richo
12. "The more invested I am in my own ideas about reality, the more those experiences will feel like victimizations rather than the ups and downs of relating. Actually, I believe that the less I conceptualize things that way, the more likely it is that people will want to stay by me, because they will not feel burdened, consciously or unconsciously, by my projections, judgments, entitlements, or unrealistic expectations." ~ David Richo
13. "When we feel unsafe with someone and still stay with him, we damage our ability to discern trustworthiness in those we will meet in the future." ~ David Richo
14. "Our tears are precious, necessary, and part of what make us such endearing creatures." ~ David Richo
