The first thing I learned was that even if you have a lot of money and power and fame, you can still suffer very deeply.
Nhat HanhIf you do not give right attention to the one you love, it is a kind of killing. When you are in the car together, if you are lost in your thoughts, assuming you already know everything about her, she will slowly die.
Nhat HanhAn emotion is only an emotion. It's just a small part of your whole being. You are much more than your emotion. An emotion comes, stays for a while, and goes away, just like a storm. If you're aware of that, you won't be afraid of your emotions.
Nhat HanhAt any moment, you have a choice, that either leads you closer to your spirit or further away from it.
Nhat Hanh
