“We disregard the wonders of the present moment, thinking that heaven and the ultimate are for later, not for now.”
― Thich Nhat Hanh, The Art of Living: Peace and Freedom in the Here and Now

“Your dream can be realized right in the present moment. You live your life in such a way that every step in the right direction and every breath along the way becomes the realization of your dream. Your dream does not take you away from the present; on the contrary, your dream becomes reality in the present moment.”

“Humans were always far better at inventing tools than using them wisely.”
― Yuval Noah Harari, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century

“Homo sapiens is just not built for satisfaction. Human happiness depends less on objective condition and more on our own expectations. Expectations, however, tend to adapt to conditions, including to the condition of other people. When things improve, expectations balloon, and consequently even dramatic improvement in conditions might leave us as dissatisfied as before.”
