Ron Wroblewski's Reviews > Running from Safety: An Adventure of the Spirit

The book is "Running from Safety" by Richard Bach. Richard is having an imaginary conversation with himself as a nine-year-old attempting to impart knowledge about the 9-year-old him as he grows up.

This book I am reading for the 2nd time. I had underlined certain parts the 1st time through. I put them together on this post.

"Love lasts in a marriage as long as wife and husband keep caring about what the other thinks."

"Choose what you love and chase it top speed and I, your future, do solemnly promise that you will never die from so what"

"In school and business and marriage, in any adventure you pick, if you care what your last words will be, you trust what you know and you dare toward your hope"

"Remember that this world is not reality. It is a playground of appearances on which we practice overcoming seems-to-be with you knowing of Is. The principle of Coincidence is a power tool that promises in this playground to take us to the other side of our wall (what is stopping us)"

Like attracts like. Choose a love and work to make it true and somehow something will happen , something you couldn't plan, will come along to move like to like, to set you loose, to see you on the way to your next brick wall (obstacle).

Saying good-bye to safety brings the only security we'll ever know.

"Real marriage isn't like two people dashing across a bridge in rice and ribbons. I's discovering after a lifetime that they've built the bridge together with their own hands."

"lose romance and you loose the power to go on through hard times, learning to love. Lose romance and you'll never learn, you'll fail at love. Fail at love, the other tests don't count

"We really love only once or twice in our lives. Treasure that love. That's my secret of marriage."
