Instead of always asking yourself how to clear up your mental fog, learn to ask: "Can confusion know anything about clarity?"

Any form of measuring yourself by the unkind action of another towards you is like looking into a badly fractured mirror... and then blaming yourself for the shattered image you see therein.

Never speak out of anger, Never act out of fear, Never choose from impatience, But wait... and peace will appear.

Nothing in the universe can stop you from letting go and starting over.

Trying to change ourselves in order to please others - so that we can feel temporarily whole for having won their approval - is like cutting a flower into pieces so that it will fit into a vase.

Talking to yourself proves only one thing: you're still unable to tell the difference between good and bad company.

Real freedom isn't subject to how others estimate our value; it is in realizing that none are free who find their sense of worth wondering how others measure their lives.
