“True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient, for he that is so wants nothing. The greatest blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach. A wise man is content with his lot, whatever it may be, without wishing for what he has not.”
― Seneca

― Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451

“Happiness and suffering are states of mind and so their main causes are not to be found outside the mind.”
― Geshe Kelsang Gyatso, Modern Buddhism: The Path of Compassion and Wisdom, Volume 1: Sutra

“I don't trust people who don't love themselves and tell me, 'I love you.' ... There is an African saying which is: Be careful when a naked person offers you a shirt.”
― Maya Angelou
