Your money only determines your lifestyle, not the nature of your life. The nature of your life is determined by how open and exuberant you are.

Do you want to look good or feel good? How wonderful you feel within yourself is most important.

A human being need not be useful. If he or she blossoms into a full-fledged human being, that is good enough.

If you are truly joyful, you won't be looking for satisfaction.

Joys come and go like a pleasant breeze. It's the miseries that stick in you like thorns - until you realize that it's all your doing.
