The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.

Our life is what our thoughts make it.

Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil.

Put from you the belief that 'I have been wronged', and with it will go the feeling. Reject your sense of injury, and the injury itself disappears.

You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

Know the joy of life by piling good deed on good deed until no rift or cranny appears between them.

Tranquility is nothing else than the good ordering of the mind.
