Socrates
If all our misfortunes were laid in one common heap whence everyone must take an equal portion, most people would be content to take their own and depart.
Focused on Competing with Yourself
When you take pride in the fact that you’ve beaten your peers or adversaries, you do well to remember: you crossed an imaginary finish line, driving a different car, on a different track in different weather. The real race was always against yourself.
Chinese Proverb
If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap. If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help someone else.
Warren Buffet
It is not greed that drives the world, it is envy.
Eyes Wide Open
Dreams are good but best done with eyes wide open. Love on the other hand is best done with eyes tightly shut.
Bold and Good
My spirit will rise to the bold and dramatically good – it will yawn at the timid and the unconvincing.
Blaise Pascal
The heart has its reasons of which reason knows nothing.
The Talmud
Every blade of grass has its angel that bends over and whispers “Grow, grow.”
