We conquer ourselves by learning patience, for she gives to us our longed for victory only in the surrender of self.

If we only knew how many times our seemingly clever comment cut straight into the heart of the person with whom we have just spoken, it is we who would bleed.

The only reason your mind won't stop its endless chattering is because you won't stop listening to it!

The right attitude toward any negative state begins with understanding that its only authority over you is a direct reflection of your attitude towards it.

Much like the hands of a clock go nowhere fast, anxious thoughts run us round-and-round without taking us anywhere!

If any of those times you rushed around madly - trying to get somewhere faster - had ever made any real difference in the quality of your life... don't you think you'd be able to slow down by now?

Our greatest strength isn't our ability to imagine brighter days ahead, it is that we are empowered-in every present moment-to effortlessly dismiss any dark thought or feeling that, left unattended, diminishes our happiness.
