-E. W. Howe

Don't think you are getting worried because it is a matter of 'worry'; as the same
news yields different intensities of worries in each person.
-Deep Trivedi
No matter how grave a problem you are stuck in, to resolve it you must know the
difference between 'thinking' and 'worrying'. Reflecting upon it, however complex
a problem may be, it soon gets solved; whereas worrying about the problem,
you are consumed by it.
-Deep Trivedi
There is always sufficient reason for despair, but there is never sufficient purpose.
-Robert Brault
People become attached to their burdens sometimes more than the burdens are attached to them.
-George Bernard Shaw
