Happiness is experienced largely in striving towards a goal, not in having attained things, because our nature is always to want to go on to the next endeavor.

Unless, of course, you insist on identifying yourself with the people and things you love; and thereby seriously disturb yourself.

The world consists mainly of love slobs who need other people's approval. Most people don't live their own lives very well.

Lack of forgiveness of others breeds lack of self-forgiveness.

I had a great many sex and love cases where people were absolutely devastated when somebody with whom they were compulsively in love didn't love them back. They were killing themselves with anxiety and depression.

Whenever you avoid alarming situations, you almost always increase your anxiety about them.

Worrying about dying will hardly help you live.
