-Thomas Stephen Szasz
If you have known yourself, you have known everything else. Know that, by knowing which, you will know everything else.

-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar "Sri Sri Ravi Shankar"
To the question of your life, you are the only answer. To the problems of your life, you are the only solution.
