Preserve your peace of mind. There is not much time; all things end in death. Do not lament the past too much, or fear the future too acutely, ot waste too much energy on other peoples' woes, in case the present dissolves altogether.

Words are not simple things: they take unto themselves, as they have through time, power and meaning.

Take me! Well, not quite take me, love me now, take me eventually

Only one thing registers on the subconscious mind: repetitive application - practice. What you practice is what you manifest.

To the happy all things come: happiness can even bring the dead back to life. It is our resentments, our dreariness, our hate and envy, unrecognized by us, which keeps us miserable. Yet these things are in our heads, not out of our hands; we own them. We can throw them out if we choose.

You will find that women who are pregnant often don't want to be and women who aren't desperately envy those who are. Labour wards are always full of very punitive people.

If you do nothing unexpected, nothing unexpected happens.
