What is happiness except the simple harmony between a man and the life he leads?

The first time you do something only happens once.

We are all afraid to say too much, to feel too deeply, to let people know what they mean to us.

They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.

The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any.

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but to your estimate of it.

Judge nothing, you will be happy. Forgive everything, you will be happier.

Walls turned sideways are bridges.

Take forgiveness slowly. Don't blame yourself for being slow. Peace will come.

You can't shake hands with a clenched fist.

The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.

Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say.
