When your thoughts, words, and deeds form a seamless fabric, you streamline your efforts and thus eliminate worry and dread.

Seek not good from without; seek it within yourselves, or you will never find it.

Cowardice, the dread of what will happen.

Freedom is not procured by a full enjoyment of what is desired, but by controlling the desire.

Who are those people by whom you wish to be admired? Are they not these whom you are in the habit of saying that they are mad? What then? Do you wish to be admired by the mad?

Whenever you are angry, be assured that it is not only a present evil, but that you have increased a habit.

You have been given your own work to do. Get to it right now, do your best at it, and don't be concerned with who is watching you. Create your own merit.
