Lord, give us joy in our families, and make us models for the rest.
-Quran
Be of service. Whether you make yourself available to a friend or co-worker, or you make time every month to do volunteer work, there is nothing that harvests more of feeling of empowerment than being of service to someone in need.
The Constitution only gives people the right to pursue happiness. You have to catch it yourself.
-Benjamin Franklin
He it is, the innermost one, who awakens my being with his deep hidden touches. He it is who puts his enchantment upon these eyes and joyfully plays on the chords of my heart in varied cadence of pleasure and pain.
The artist must be in his work as God is in creation, invisible and all-powerful; his presence should be felt everywhere, but he should never be seen.
-Gustave Flaubert
Since you are born a human being, it is good to have fancies for life and fulfill
them. It will surely broaden your mind. But at the level of consciousness, you must
harness just one big 'aim'. Buddha, Jesus, Edison, Bill Gates, Shakespeare...all
are the result of 'singular orientation' at the level of consciousness.
-Deep Trivedi
Chant the name of God with heartfelt devotion. Everything else is just a pompous worldly show.
