Paramahansa Yogananda
“The one who pursues a goal of evenmindedness is neither jubilant with gain nor depressed by loss.”
Paramahansa Yogananda, Autobiography of a Yogi

Charles Frazier
“WILDE SAID, I hoped he could offer advice on ways Ireland might free itself. He has been the greatest revolutionary of the past century. —He was never a rebel. He was a businessman and a politician who believed the Constitution protected the capital of his class and culture above everything else.”
Charles Frazier, Varina

Kurt Vonnegut Jr.
“Karl Marx got a bum rap. All he was trying to do was figure out how to take care of a whole lot of people. Of course, socialism is just “evil” now. It’s completely discredited, supposedly, by the collapse of the Soviet Union. I can’t help noticing that my grandchildren are heavily in hock to communist China now, which is evidently a whole lot better at business than we are. You talk about the collapse of communism or the Soviet Union. My goodness, this country collapsed in 1929. I mean it crashed, big time, and capitalism looked like a very poor idea.”
Kurt Vonnegut

Dalai Lama XIV
“According to Lyubomirsky, the three factors that seem to have the greatest influence on increasing our happiness are our ability to reframe our situation more positively, our ability to experience gratitude, and our choice to be kind and generous.”
Dalai Lama XIV

Robert Penn Warren
“But, the stultifying lingo aside, the question I raise is a vital one for us all, we are all stuck with trying to find the meaning of our lives, and the only thing we have to work on, or with, is our past.”
Robert Penn Warren, A Place to Come To
