Give yourself a gift: the present moment.

The body of an actor can be either his best friend or his worst enemy.

Objective judgement, now, at this very moment. Unselfish action, now, at this very moment. Willing acceptance - now, at this very moment - of all external events. That's all you need.

Live with the gods. And he does so who constantly shows them that his soul is satisfied with what is assigned to him.

Suppose that men kill thee, cut thee in pieces, curse thee, what can these things do to prevent thy mind from remaining pure, wise, sober, just?

You don't have to turn this into something. It doesn't have to upset you. Things can't shape our decisions by themselves.

Begin each day by telling yourself: Today I shall be meeting with interference, ingratitude, insolence, disloyalty, ill-will, and selfishness – all of them due to the offenders’ ignorance of what is good or evil.
