GREATEST EQUALLIZER

For a man can lose neither the past nor the future; for how can one take from him that which is not his? So remember these two points: first, that each thing is of like form from everlasting and comes round again in its cycle, and that it signifies not whether a man shall look upon the same things for a hundred years or two hundred, or for an infinity of time; second, that the longest lived and the shortest lived man, when they come to die, lose one and the same thing.
--Marcus Aurelius

NEUROSIS

"...Our wisdom is all mixed up with what we call our neurosis.Our brilliance, our juiceness, our spiciness, is all mixed up with our craziness and our confusion, and therefore it doesn't do any good to try to get rid of our so-called negative aspects,because in the process we also get rid of our basic wonderfulness"--Pema chodron

HONESTY!

"...True fearlessness comes from the knowledge thatwe will never lie to ourselves, that we will never evadea single moment of our lives. We will be fully presentfor every moment and every consequence."

VIRTUE

"...Virtue means doing the right thing,in the relation to the right person,at the right time,to the right extent,in the right manner,and for the right purpose.Thus,to give money away is quite a simple take,but for the act to be virtuous,the donor must give to the right person,for the right purpose,in the right amount,in the right manner,and the right time."--ARISTOTLE
