The happiness that is derived from excitement is like a brilliant fire- soon it will go out.

The perfect way is only difficult for those who pick and choose. Do not like, do not dislike; all will then be clear.

The struggle between 'for' and 'against' is the mind's worst disease.

The consciousness of self is the greatest hindrance to the proper execution of all physical action.
