Pema Chödrön
“The point is that we can dissolve the sense of dualism between us and them, between this and that, between here and there, by moving toward what we find difficult and wish to push away.”
― Pema Chödrön, When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times

Awdhesh Singh

― Awdhesh Singh, 31 Ways to Happiness

Seneca
“Sometimes, even to live is an act of courage.”
― Seneca

“Dualism is an isolating sense of separation, a feeling of being fully on one's own in life, unconnected to others, to the natural world, to the whole of reality. Overcoming dualism is the cure for suffering.”
― Dale S. Wright, Living Skillfully: Buddhist Philosophy of Life from the Vimalakirti Sutra

“Freedom is a two-edged sword of which one edge is liberty and the other responsibility, on which both edges are exceedingly sharp; and which is not easily handled by casual, cowardly or treacherous hands.”
― Jack Whiteside Parsons
