“The Dalai Lama, when asked what surprised him most about humanity, answered "Man! Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”
― Dalai Lama

“Utopia, Shangri-la, Nirvana and Heaven on Earth are just names for a state of being, not a place of visiting. You enter the magic of life and begin to experience outright bliss daily once you reclaim the inherent power that lurks in your core. And when you don’t postpone being grateful for even the tiniest of everyday graces. You’ll become a magnet for miracles when you begin being a magician of sorts.”
― Robin S. Sharma, The 5AM Club: Own Your Morning. Elevate Your Life.

“Nowadays we are all of us so hard up that the only pleasant things to pay are compliments. They’re the only things we can pay.”

“If words come from the heart, they will enter the heart. If they come from the tongue, they will not pass beyond the ears.”
― Rumi
