God enters by a private door into every individual.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Those who read books cannot understand the teachings and, what’s more, may even go astray. But those who try to observe the things going on in the mind, and always take that which is true in their own minds as their standard; never get muddled.
You'll be happy if you'll remember that men don't change much. Women do. Women adapt themselves, and if you think that means they lose their individuality, you're wrong. Show me a happy marriage and I'll show you a clever woman.
-Elizabeth Cadell
A leader has to be a samadarshi, one who sees everyone as being equal; satyadarshi, who moves with the Truth; paradarshi, who is transparent in action; doordarshi, being broad-minded and a visionary; and priyadarshi, embodying love and compassion.
It’s impossible said pride. It’s risky said experience. It’s pointless said reason. Give it a try whispered the heart.

The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Gustav Jung
If God listened to the prayers of men, all men would quickly have perished: for they are forever praying for evil against one another.
-Epicurus
We are responsible for what we are, and whatever we wish ourselves to be, we have the power to make ourselves. If what we are now has been the result of our own past actions, it certainly follows that whatever we wish to be in future can be produced by our present actions; so we have to know how to act.
