“If circumstances are bad and you have to bear them, do not make them a part of yourself.”

Change yourself and you have done your part in changing the world.

Those who are unconquered in spirit are the real successes in life. If you can so train or condition your mind that you are content regardless of what you have or do not have, and if you can stand the challenge of all your trials and remain calm-that is true happiness.

Whenever you want to produce something, do not depend upon the outside source: go deep and seek the Infinite Source.

Since you alone are responsible for your thoughts, only you can change them.

A genuine smile distributes the cosmic current, Prana to every body cell.The happy man is less subject to disease, for happiness actually attracts into the body a greater supply of the Universal life energy.

Live quietly in the moment and see the beauty of all before you. The future will take care of itself.

As a broken microphone cannot broadcast a message, so a restless mind cannot transmit prayers to God

A smooth life is not a victorious life.

It is spiritual poverty, not material lack, that lies at the core of all human suffering.

If you permit your thoughts to dwell on evil you yourself will become ugly. Look only for the good in everything so you absorb the quality of beauty.

Freedom means the power to act by soul guidance, not by the compulsions of desires and habits. Obeying the ego leads to bondage; obeying the soul brings liberation.

If you are in a dark room, don’t beat at the darkness with a stick, but rather try to turn on the light

Remain calm, serene, always in command of yourself. You will then find out how easy it is to get along.

Beginning with the early dawn of each day, I will radiate joy to everyone I meet. I will be mental sunshine for all who cross my path. Before the unfailing light of my cheer, darkness will take flight.

You do not have to struggle to reach God, but you do have to struggle to tear away the self-created veil that hides him from you

When you learn to get along with yourself, you will know how to get along with everybody.

If you are insulted, if you are accused, if they gossip about you, don’t say anything bad. Don’t be the one who sees the shame, be the one who corrects it.

The bad fortune of the good turns their faces up to heaven; the good fortune of the bad bows their heads down to the earth.

A little bad taste is like a nice dash of paprika.

This world is like a mountain. Your echo depends on you. If you scream good things, the world will give it back. If you scream bad things, the world will give it back. Even if someone says badly about you, speak well about him. Change your heart to change the world.

He who has calmly reconciled his life to fate, and set proud death beneath his feet, can look fortune in the face, unbending both to good and bad; his countenance unconquered.

I haven’t really found the right person. That sounds like an older person thing to say, but I’m too busy and – not in a bad way – don’t want to waste my time.

It’s too bad if a heart lacks fire, and is deprived of the light of a heart ablaze. The day on which you are without passionate love is the most wasted day of your life.

It’s true, pressure is something that goes with football nowadays. You need to accept it, and everything that it involves – the good and the bad.
