Quotes from "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle

pg 18 "Many people live with a tormentor in their head that continuously attacks and punishes them and drains them of vital energy. It is the cause of untold misery and unhappiness, as well as of disease."
pg 21 "So the single most vital step on your journey toward enlightenment is this: Every time you create a gap in the stream of mind, the light of your consciousness grows stronger."
"One day you may catch yourself smiling at the voice in your head, as you would smile at the antics of a child. This means that you no longer take the content of your mind all that seriously, as your sense of self does not depend on it."
