There is nothing wrong with God’s creation. Mystery and suffering only exist in the mind.
Always think of what is useful and not what is beautiful. Beauty will come of its own accord.
-Nikolai Gogol
As rivers flow into the ocean but cannot make the vast ocean overflow, so flow the streams of the sense - world into the sea of peace that is the sage.

-Leo Tolstoy
There is no sense of ease like the ease we felt in those scenes where we were born, where objects became dear to us before we had known the labour of choice.
-George Eliot
A man who is averse to harming even the wind knows the sorrow of all living things.
He who is in perfect peace suspects no man. But he who is discontented and disturbed is agitated by various suspicions; he neither has rest himself, nor does he permit others to rest.
-Jesus Christ
