„You think that your attention is in the present moment when it’s actually taken up completely by time. You cannot be both unhappy and fully present in the Now. What you refer to as your “life” should more accurately be called your “life situation.”“

— Eckhart Tolle

„Realize deeply that the present moment is all you have. Make the NOW the primary focus of your life.“
— Eckhart Tolle
„On the surface it seems that the present moment is only one of many, many moments. Each day of your life appears to consist of thousands of moments where different things happen. Yet if you look more deeply, is there not only one moment, ever? Is life ever not this moment? This one moment, now, is the only thing you can never escape from. The one constant factor in your life. No matter what happens. No matter how much your life changes. One thing is certain. Its always now. Since there is no escape from the now, why not welcome it, become friendly with it.“
— Eckhart Tolle
„Another way that you love your enemy is this: When the opportunity presents itself for you to defeat your enemy, that is the time which you must not do it.“

„Accept — then act. Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it. Make it your friend and ally, not your enemy. This will miraculously transform your whole life.“
— Eckhart Tolle
