Don’t try to steer the river
Deepak Chopra
Life passes like a wild river. Enjoy every moment to paddle against it.

“If I didn’t think I could be a part of a movement that could influence, and be a part of helping and change, if I couldn’t help that through what I’m doing, I wouldn’t do this. But I’m seeing that through this position -in this career, and where I have these magazine interviews- I can be an example, and I think that’s important. In all the interviews I do, I say something about being vegan. I don’t want to come off as if I’m a savior. I’m only a very small part of anything, but I think it’s important to be involved. I’m interested in meditation and finding spiritual fulfillment. But for me to just go off and devote my life to monkhood in the jungle would be ultimately abandoning the world, and the consciousness would be on a selfish level. I think I can do a lot more good for this planet if I am out there.“ - River Phoenix interview for Vegetarian Times March 1988. ☮️💖
"I’m quite in love with the human race and this planet that we live on, and I see life as very fresh and beautiful. People say to me, ‘Oh you have the world in your hands’ or 'You’re young and you have all these opportunities.’ But that’s not why I feel the way I do. It’s just my reality. I’ve felt that way before too. Still, I get very frustrated with the pace of life - I want so badly for people just to understand each other and communicate better! With all this technology, that’s the best we can do? Pride so often gets in the way, in politics and everywhere else. It’s depressing. "But there’s the optimistic side of me too, which believes that we live in an incredible time and that if we all come together on the important issues and stand up for our rights, as Bob Marley said, we could really accomplish a lot. I guess I’m a perfectionist. In my mind, I have all these Utopias and fantasies, but I believe they can work. I really do" - River Phoenix 😍😍☮️💕
River quote 😍☮️💕
“We are taught to consume. And that’s what we do. But if we realized that there really is no reason to consume, that it’s just a mind set, that it’s just an addiction, then we wouldn’t be out there stepping on people’s hands climbing the corporate ladder of success" - River Phoenix 😍☮️💖
“when I was younger. You do everything they tell you, they teach you how to pose, you know, they say, ‘you have to do it like this!’ And you tilt your head, and they show you how to push your lips out and suck in your cheek… oh, oh and then all the outtakes that you never want to see again in your life go through the teen magazines forever. - River Phoenix on photo shoots 😍☮️❤️
"My family, don't waste the world's resources. We eat what we grow, we don't exploit animals, we use up less than our share of electricity and power, we have solar heating, we aren't materialistic..." - River Phoenix 😍😍☮️❤️
