Fools are more healthy then the so-called wise. Thy live in the moment and they know that thy are fools, so thy are not worried about what others think about them.

Life in itself is so beautiful that to ask the question of the meaning of life is simply nonsense.

Celebration is my attitude, unconditional to what life brings.

Life is not logic, life is not philosophy. Life is a dance, a song, a celebration! It is more like love and less like logic.

Don't be angry at life. It is not life that is frustrating you, it is you who are not listening to life.

All your knowledge is dust. Knowing is your purity, knowledge is dust.

Get out of your head and get into your heart. Think less, feel more.

Our whole life is a fooling around. You can do it because you are not aware of how you waste time, how you waste energy - how life is wasted you are not aware. It is going down the drain. Everything is going down the drain. Only when death comes to you, you may become aware, alert: What have I been doing? What have I done with life? A great opportunity has been lost. What was I doing fooling around? I was not sober. I never reflected upon what I was doing.

The whole of life has become an institution, a madhouse in which duties are to be fulfilled not love; in which you have to behave, not be spontaneous; in which a pattern has to be followed, not the overflow of life and energy. That's why the mind thinks and decides everything, because there is danger.

This is what I call understanding. If you understand, insecurity is an intrinsic part of life - and good that it is so, because it makes life a freedom, it makes life a continuous surprise. One never knows what is going to happen. It keeps you continuously in wonder. Don't call it uncertainty - call it wonder. Don't call it insecurity - call it freedom.

Remember, life is always uncertain. Everything dead is certain, life is always uncertain. Everything dead is solid, fixed - its nature cannot be changed; everything alive is moving, changing - a flow, a liquid thing, flexible, able to move in any direction. The more you become certain, the more you will miss life. And those who know, know life is God. If you miss life, you miss God.

Remember: life is a rhythm between day and night, summer and winter. It is a continuous rhythm. Never stop anywhere! Be moving! And the bigger the swing, the deeper your experience will be.

Life is not static. If life were static there would be no need for meditation. The mind would do. Then you could think, and whenever, after many lives, you knocked at the door, the girl would be waiting for you. But life is a flux, a movement. Every moment it is changing and becoming new. If you miss a moment, you have missed.

Life is possible only through challenges. Life is possible only when you have both good weather and bad weather, when you have both pleasure and pain, when you have both winter and summer, day and night. When you have both sadness and happiness, discomfort and comfort. Life moves between these two polarities. Moving between these two polarities you learn how to balance. Between these two wings you learn how to fly to the farthest star.

In this life, your so-called ordinary life, you must be rooted; and in your inner space, in the spiritual life, you must be weightless and flying and flowing, floating.

Awareness, beholding the mind, is the most essential method to have a breakthrough. And once you have gone just a step beyond the mind, you have entered the world of nirvana, you have entered the world of light and eternal life. You have attained to spiritual integrity, freedom, and tremendous ecstasy which the mind cannot even dream about.

Real music will help you move towards meditation, beyond the mind needs, towards spiritual needs. Real poetry will give you a glimpse of the minds of the sages - a glimpse of course. It will open a window so you can see the faraway distant Himalayas. And then an urge arises in you, and you start travelling.

When you are in the present without thinking, you are for the first time spiritual.

Laughter is spiritual health. And laughter is very unburdening. While you laugh, you can put your mind aside very easily. For a man who cannot laugh the doors of the buddha are closed. To me, laughter is one of the greatest values. No religion has ever thought about it. They have always been insisting on seriousness, and because of their insistence the whole world is psychologically sick.

Laughter is more sacred than prayer, dancing more spiritual than chanting mantras, loving existence more cosmic than going to a church.

When you have a heartfelt belly laugh, all parts of your being - the physiological, the pyschological, the spiritual - they all vibrate in one single tune. They all vibrate in harmony!

A man who is 100% sane is dead.

When I say be creative I don't mean that you should all go and become great painters and great poets. I simply mean let your life be a painting, let your life be a poem.

Only laughter makes a man rich, but the laughter has to be blissful.

Remain in wonder if you want the mysteries to open up for you. Mysteries never open up for those who go on questioning. Questioners sooner or later end up in a library. Questioners sooner or later end up with scriptures, because scriptures are full of answers. And answers are dangerous, they kill your wonder.

Love and respect yourself and never compromise for anything. And then you will be surprised how much growth starts happening of its own accord.. as if rocks have been removed and the river has started flowing.

You will find meaning in life only if you create it.It is a poetry to be composed. It is a song to be sung.It is a dance to be danced...

Pretty hard to sweep me off my feet. It would have to take someone very special. You never know. I guess when you least expect it, it's going to come.

Very few women get asked to be in the swimsuit issue, and I'm really proud to be one of so many beautiful and empowering women.

I love The Cheesecake Factory, especially the chicken marsala. I almost always pick that dish; it tastes unbelievable.

On grass, it can be the small things that decide a match.

Young players are starting to come up as well and they will see me as one of the older, experienced ones.

You need the right fuel for the body.

I never give up. Doesn't matter what the score is.

On a normal day-to-day basis, I'm makeup free, hair in a bun, and I just go.

Whether you're tall or shorter, or a little bigger, more curves, skinny - you just have to be proud of what you have, and everyone is beautiful.

The only one I feel pressure from is myself to go and give my all for every match and, obviously, I'm a competitor.

I try to be myself and, of course, be a good role model. I don't really find it hard, but you think about what you do and that other people look up to you.

That's what I love about tennis: As an individual sport, you can't hide behind teammates.

Every time I go out onto a tennis court, I know what to expect.

I would want to bring up my children. Therefore, I have no dream to make my mark. Instead, I enjoy economic freedom my hard work has given me. It means that I can give my children the best start in life.

I really want to see New Zealand; it's a beautiful place.

I love winning. I don't like losing.

I think I'm a really tough player.

I feel like everything is possible.

To be the world No. 1 has always been a dream for me.

I have nothing to lose and think that it's a positive thing that I am young and playing on a good level.

I like to be with my friends and my family, listen to music and read books. Things like that relax me.

You feel better about yourself when you do something with yourself. You also feel more confident.

One day my dad would say, 'OK, if you want to play tennis I can help you out.' And that's how it started. And I had a goal. I wanted to beat my mom first. And my parents and my brother. And that was the ultimate goal.
