You and the world should stop thinking of changing each other. Just allow a third person to do the needful. You know who I mean: God, the only Doer.
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
If you want to leave the world better than you found it, then use your heart of compassion and your life of concern.
Yesterday I was clever that is why I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise that is why I am changing myself.
If we cannot envision the world we would like to live in, we cannot work towards its creation. If we cannot place ourselves in it in our imagination, we will not believe it is possible.
Compassion: I don’t think that there is another world as important in marking a person’s inner growth. No other word completely conveys what this single word conveys.
Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realise there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
The world is my country, all mankind are my brethren, and to do good is my religion.
