Belief in a cruel God makes a cruel man.
-Thomas Paine
Since, O Mazda, from the beginning, Thou didst create soul and body; mental power and knowledge and since Thou didst place life within the corporeal body and didst bestow to mankind the power to act, speak and guide, you wished that everyone should choose his or her own faith and path freely.
I'm not saying it's going to be easy. Nothing in life is easy. But that's no reason to give up. You'll be surprised what you can accomplish if you set your mind to it. After all, you only have one life, so you should try to make the most of it.
-Louis Sachar
In life, whatever you achieve by putting in efforts will never give you happiness,
as the pain starts right from the time of making an effort. On the other hand, the
tasks that you enjoy doing, persist for long spells; then whatever you gain out of
it, the end result will always be both positive and effective for your life.
-Deep Trivedi
You can live your whole life not realizing that what you're looking for is right in front of you.
-David Nicholas
Don’t complain too loud about wrongs done to you; you may give ideas to your less imaginative enemies.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
God does not test you because he knows you completely - your past, present and future.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
People were always getting ready for tomorrow.
I didn’t believe in that.
Tomorrow wasn’t getting ready for them.
It didn’t even know they were there.
-Cormac McCarthy
Do not worry about tomorrow, it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings.
-Jesus Christ
