Success should be measured by the yardstick of happiness; by your ability to remain in peaceful harmony with cosmic laws.
Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us.
To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. “I will drink the ocean”, says the persevering soul; “at my will mountains will crumble up”.
People will ask me: Don’t you believe in God? No, I don’t. I believe in two things above all: Nature and Love. Nature is all-powerful. Love is how I understand the good. It might have been nice to believe in God, often defined as all-powerful and good, but combining the two like that has always posed too much of a contradiction for my poor mind to believe in.
