The body grows slowly and steadily but the soul grows by leaps and bounds.

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

When someone tells me “no,” it doesn't mean I can't do it, it simply means I can't do it with them.

In quietness the soul expands.

It is so easy to give, so exquisitely rewarding.

Is not life a hundred times too short for us to bore ourselves?

Travel is the traveler. What we see isn't what we see but what we are.

If you follow the natural intentions, you get the most success out of life.

Being successful doesn't mean anything in and of itself. It just means that you're successful.

Optimism is a happiness magnet.

If you wake up and the day feels broken, just lean into the crack.

Grief is the price we pay for love.
