"Dignity had always gotten us through. It was a choice, and not always the easy one, but the people I respected most in life made it again and again, every single day.” – Michelle Obama
“...the man who learns, in solitude and recollection, to be at peace with his own loneliness, comes to know the invisible companionship of God. Such a one is alone with God in all places, and truly enjoys the companionship of others, because he loves them in God in Whom their presence is not tiresome, and because of Whom his own love for them can never know satiety.”
― Thomas Merton, No Man Is an Island “Strength might seem an unlikely result of positive emotions, but the reality is that only the positive emotions are strong, for only they function in complete harmony with the upward current of creation.
Friendliness to everyone everywhere at all times brings about personal invincibility, for there can be no enemy born to those who always love.” Patanjali, “Enlightenment” "Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness. How do you know this is the experience you need? Because this is the experience you are having at the moment. True intelligence operates silently. Stillness is where creativity and solutions to problems are found." —Eckhart Tolle
"There is something which you can do better than another. Listen to the inward voice and bravely obey that. Do the things at which you are great, not what you were never made for.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
“With every breath, we breathe in a thousand-trillion-trillion atoms—which join us to become part of us; we breathe out a similar number of molecules that were a moment before part of our bodies. Our body is in a constant state of transformation, exchanging life and matter with the rest of the Universe continually.”
Maharishi Isham from the Sutras of Patanjali “Within you there is a stillness and sanctuary to which you can retreat at any time and be yourself.” Hermann Hesse
Paradise is not a place, it’s a state of consciousness.” Sri Chinmoy
"Meditation is the ultimate mobile device; you can use it anywhere, anytime, unobtrusively.” Sharon Salzberg “To begin with, it seems like an effort to keep returning to the welcoming presence, but at some point it is so natural that it seems to require an effort to leave it. It feels like home. We no longer feel that we need to be entertained.” ― Francis Lucille, The Perfume of Silence“
