See All“Let us... be careful of admitting into our souls the notion that there is no truth or health or soundness in any arguments at all; but let us rather say that there is as yet no health in us, and that we must quit ourselves like men and do our best to gain health—you and all other men with a view to the whole of your future life, and I myself with a view to death.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Don't aim at success — the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side-effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long run — in the long run, I say — success will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think of it.”
Man's Search For Meaning • Viktor E Frankl“Variant Translation: Let not thy mind run on what thou lackest as much as on what thou hast already.”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius““Two people can see the same thing, disagree, and yet both be right. It’s not logical; it’s psychological.””
The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People • Stephen R. Covey“There is nothing like looking, if you want to find something. You certainly usually find something, if you look, but it is not always quite the something you were after.”
The Hobbit • J.R.R Tolkien
