If we put our soul into our work, if, rather than just going through the motions, what we do flows from the deepest part of our being, then after a burst of creativity, we need to replenish our souls.

I think of life as a good book. The further you get into it, the more it begins to make sense.

One of the most sublime experiences we can ever have is to wake up feeling healthy after we have been sick.

We do ourselves and others a disservice when we make old age something to be feared. Life is not a resource to be used up, so that the older we get, the less life we have left. Life is the accumulation of wisdom, love and experience of people encountered and obstacles overcome. The longer we live, the more life we possess.

Seek something outside your nine-to-five job as an additional source of fulfillment and as a way to feel the joy of helping others.

Life is like the baseball season, where even the best team loses at least a third of its games, and even the worst team has its days of brilliance. The goal is not to win every game but to win more than you lose, and if you do that often enough, in the end you may find you have won it all.

Being kind to others is a way of being good to yourself.
