The disciples were absorbed in a discussion of Lao-Tzu's dictum: "Those who know, do not say; Those who say, do not know." When the master entered, they asked him what the words meant.

Problems only exist in the human mind.

The only way someone can be of help to you is in challenging your ideas.

What you are aware of you are in control of; what you are not aware of is in control of you.

Most people don't live aware lives. They live mechanical lives, mechanical thoughts - generally somebody else's - mechanical emotions, mechanical actions, mechanical reactions.
