Thich Nhat Hanh
“The horse is our habit energy pulling us along, and we are powerless. We are always running, and it has become a habit. We struggle all the time, even during our sleep. We are at war within ourselves, and we can easily start a war with others.”
Thich Nhat Hanh, The Heart of the Buddha's Teaching: Transforming Suffering into Peace, Joy, and Liberation

Eknath Easwaran
“Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love.”
Eknath Easwaran, God Makes the Rivers to Flow: An Anthology of the World's Sacred Poetry and Prose

“You’re only as young as the last time you changed your mind.”
Corey McComb, Productivity Is For Robots: How To (re)Connect, Get Creative, And Stay Human In The New World

Robert Pantano
“We recognize that affecting a small thing in the past can dramatically change the present, but yet, we rarely think about the way in which affecting a small thing in the present can dramatically change the future. Right”
Robert Pantano, The Art of Living a Meaningless Existence: Ideas from Philosophy That Change the Way You Think

Maria Popova
“What are the building blocks of character, of contentment, of lasting achievement? How does a person come into self-possession and sovereignty of mind against the tide of convention and unreasoning collectivism? Does genius suffice for happiness, does distinction, does love? Two Nobel Prizes don’t seem to recompense the melancholy radiating from every photograph of the woman in the black laboratory dress. Is success a guarantee of fulfillment, or merely a promise as precarious as a marital vow? How, in this blink of existence bookended by nothingness, do we attain completeness of being?”
Maria Popova, Figuring
