Men destroy each other during war; themselves during peacetime.
-Nassim Nicholas Taleb
Mind is consciousness, which has limitations. We are originally unlimited and perfect. Later on we take on limitations and become the mind…There is no mind to control if you realise the self. The mind having vanished, the self shines forth.
When a work appears to be ahead of its time, it is only the time that is behind the work.
-Jean Cocteau
Life has meaning only in the struggle. Triumph or defeat is in the hands of the gods. So let us celebrate the struggle.
The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.
Life every man holds dear; but the dear man holds honor far more precious dear than life.
-William Shakespeare
