You cannot be lonely if you like the person you're alone with.

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

Nirvana or lasting enlightenment or true spiritual growth can be achieved only through persistent exercise of real love.

For every mistake that you learn from you will save thousands of similar mistakes in the future, so if you treat mistakes as learning opportunities that yield rapid improvements you should be excited by them. But if you treat them as bad things, you will make yourself and others miserable, and you won't grow.

The only power fear has is the power you give it.

Your reputation is in the hands of others. That's what the reputation is. You can't control that. The only thing you can control is your character.
