“Be with me always - take any form - drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I can not live without my life! I can not live without my soul!”

“Boredom is the most sublime of all human
emotions because it expresses the fact that
the human spirit, in a certain sense,
is greater than the entire universe.
Boredom is an expression of a profound despair
at not finding anything that can satisfy the
soul's boundless needs”

“Death was the rule, life the exception. Life was at best a transitory dream, set in a universe that was entirely indifferent to his fate.”

“You have the right to work, but for the work's sake only. You have no right to the fruits of work. Desire for the fruits of work must never be your motive in working. Never give way to laziness, either.
Perform every action with you heart fixed on the Supreme Lord. Renounce attachment to the fruits. Be even-tempered in success and failure: for it is this evenness of temper which is meant by yoga.
Work done with anxiety about results is far inferior to work done without such anxiety, in the calm of self-surrender. Seek refuge in the knowledge of Brahma. They who work selfishly for results are miserable.”
