The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.
Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans. The mind is everything. What you think you become. The only way to do great work is to love what you do. Get busy living or get busy dying. The greatest wealth is to live content with little. To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all. The purpose of our lives is to be happy. He who lives in harmony with himself lives in harmony with the universe. The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts. You are a little soul carrying around a corpse. Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one. The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury. The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make it. It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live. Do not waste time on what you cannot control. Life is neither good or evil, but only a place for good and evil. You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough. The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today. The best way to avenge yourself is to not be like that. The only wealth which you will keep forever is the wealth you have given away. A man’s worth is no greater than his ambitions. Be tolerant with others and strict with yourself. The only thing that is truly yours is your mind. What we do now echoes in eternity. You have to keep yourself in check. The things you think about determine the quality of your mind. Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. You have power over your mind -not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength. In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. The only way to deal with fear is to face it head on. The more we value things outside our control, the less control we have. Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions. You are what you think. If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it. |
