The price of anything is the amount of life you exchange for it.
-Henry David Thoreau
We must remember that the test of our religious principles lies not just in what we say, not only in our prayers, not even in living blameless lives - but in what we do for others
-Harry S. Truman
Like the waves in great rivers, there is no turning back of that which has previously been done…The soul is bound with the fetters made of the fruit of good and evil.
Only he, who lives freely can enjoy life to the fullest. An egoist can never live
freely. And it is also true, how can a person tied up in numerous bondages do
anything else but die each moment he lives?
-Deep Trivedi
I love to be alone. I never found the companion that was so companionable as solitude.
-Henry David Thoreau
To work without attachment is to work without the expectation of reward or fear of any punishment in this world or the next. Work so done is a means to the end, and God is the end.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
When you find peace within yourself, you become the kind of person who can live at peace with others.
-Peace Pilgrim
