Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning.
“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”
Happiness does not come from having much, but from being attached to little.
If you have fear of some pain or suffering, you should examine whether there is anything you can do about it. If you can, there is no need to worry about it; if you cannot do anything, then there is also no need to worry.
The fire that warms us can also consume us; it is not the fault of the fire. The fault lies in us, in our want of control.
The greatest sin is to think yourself weak.
