Your days are numbered. Use them to throw open the windows of your soul to the sun. If you do not, the sun will soon set, and you with it.

Both happiness and unhappiness depend on perception

---

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

---

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

---

Whenever you are about to find fault with someone, ask yourself the following question: What fault of mine most nearly resembles the one I am about to criticize?

---

Adapt yourself to the life you have been given; and truly love the people with whom destiny has surrounded you.

---

When another blames you or hates you, or people voice similar criticisms, go to their souls, penetrate inside and see what sort of people they are. You will realize that there is no need to be racked with anxiety that they should hold any particular opinion about you.

---

Why should we feel anger at the world? As if the world would notice?

---

You always own the option of having no opinion. There is never any need to get worked up or to trouble your soul about things you can't control. These things are not asking to be judged by you. Leave them alone.

---

The best revenge is not to be like your enemy.
