Nothing is of a permanent nature.

We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.

Distinguish between real needs and artificial wants and control the latter.

The one condition for fighting for peace and liberty is to acquire self-restraint.
