Daniel Calina

“If thou workest at that which is before thee, following right reason seriously, vigorously, calmly, without allowing anything else to distract thee, but keeping thy divine part pure, as if thou shouldst be bound to give it back immediately; if thou holdest to this, expecting nothing, fearing nothing, but satisfied with thy present activity according to nature, and with heroic truth in every word and sound which thou utterest, thou wilt live happy.”
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations

“You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life.”
― Albert Camus

“Suicide carried off many. Drink and the devil took care of the rest”
― Robert Louis Stevenson

“If you work at that which is before you, following right reason   seriously, vigorously, calmly, without allowing anything else to distract   you, but keeping your divine part pure, as if you should be bound   to give it back immediately; if you hold to this, expecting nothing,   fearing nothing, but satisfied with your present activity according   to nature, and with heroic truth in every word and sound which you   utter, you will live happy. And there is no man who is able to   prevent this.”
― Marcus Aurelius, Meditations
