The vast majority of our troubles and heartaches would simply vanish from view if only we could remember - before we act - that we are made victims mostly by our own tendencies.

The more time we spend considering the shortcomings of others, the smaller a person we become.

Self-pity is the campsite of self-defeat; it is a dark refuge for those parts of us that would rather wallow in what cannot be than dare to explore what is possible.

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

Within the human being there exists both the needful and the needed. You know that the needful exists in you. Your own dissatisfaction tells you so. But you believe the needed is somewhere outside of you.

Nothing glows brighter than the heart awakened to the unseen light of love that lives within it.

Chasing after a pleasure to ease a pain is like running after a breeze to cool you down.
