To be without some of the things you want is an indispensable part of happiness.

~ Bertrand Russell, philosopher, mathematician, author, Nobel laureate (1872-1970)

There is nothing wrong in searching for happiness. But of far more comfort to the soul is something greater than happiness or unhappiness, and that is meaning. Because meaning transfigures all. Once what you are doing has for you meaning, it is irrelevant whether you’re happy or unhappy. You are content – you are not alone in your Spirit – you belong.

~ Sir Laurens van der Post from Hasten Slowly, a film by Mickey Lemle

My crown is in my heart, not on my head;
Not deck’d with diamonds and Indian stones,
Nor to be seen: my crown is called content;
A crown it is that seldom kings enjoy.
~ Shakespeare, Henry VI

It's hard for many people to believe that there are extraordinary things inside themselves, as well as others.
~ M. Night Shyamalan, Unbreakable

Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.
~ Vincent van Gogh

Too many people are thinking of security instead of opportunity. They seem to be more afraid of life than death.
~ James F. Bymes

When life demands more of people than they demand of life--as is ordinarily the case--what results is a resentment of life almost as deep-seated as the fear of death.
~Tom Robbins

Nothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task.
~ William James

It's so hard when contemplated in advance, and so easy when you do it.
~ Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

Man must not allow the clock and the calendar to blind him to the fact that each moment of his life is a miracle and a mystery.

"Motivation is when you get a hold of an idea and you take it to its ultimate conclusion... Inspiration, it seems to me, is exactly the opposite. Inspiration is when an idea gets a hold of you, and you can't do anything other than follow that."

~ Wayne Dyer
