First tell yourself what you want to be, then do what you need to do.

The people have a right to the truth as they have a right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

-….when things seem to have reached that stage, merely say “I won’t play any longer”, and take your departure; but if you stay, stop lamenting.

Is freedom anything else than the power of living as we choose? Nothing else. Tell me then, you men, do you wish to live in error? We do not. No one who lives in error is free. Do you wish to live in fear? Do you wish to live in sorrow? Do you wish to live in tension? By no means. No one who is in a state of fear or sorrow or tension is free, but whoever is delivered from sorrows or fears or anxieties, he is at the same time also delivered from servitude.

We must ever bear in mind --that apart from the will there is nothing good or bad, and that we must not try to anticipate or to direct events, but merely to accept them with intelligence.

The origin of sorrow is this: to wish for something that does not come to pass.

Don't demand or expect that events happen as you would wish them do. Accept events as they actually happen. That way, peace is possible.
