“True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.”

—Martin Luther King Jr.

“The deepest secret is that life is not a process of discovery, but a process of creation. You are not discovering yourself, but creating yourself anew. Seek therefore, not to find out “Who You Are”, but seek to determine “Who You Want to Be”.”

Neale Donald Walsch

“None of us will ever accomplish anything excellent or commanding except when he listens to this whisper which is heard by him alone.”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Never think of pain or danger or enemies a moment longer than is necessary to fight them.”

—Ayn Rand, Atlas Shrugged

“Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution.”

—Khalil Gibran

“Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That’s its balance.”

—Osho

“Remember one thing always — that there is no cause to be anxious in life, and all causes are just excuses. If you decide not to be anxious, then nothing will make you anxious; there is nothing worth it. Life is such a fleeting phenomenon that is going to disappear one day. Why be bothered too much about it? We are only here for so few days. Just play the game and remain aloof. If one can remain a witness, aloof, distant from things, then anxiety is not possible. Anxiety comes into existence only when we become identified with small things. And they all pass.”

—Osho
