...when I think of you it's with tears, because no one else has such delicate hands that can reach into my soul and calm my fears...
-John Geddes
If we stop expecting others to treat us as someone special, all our miseries

you"?
-Deep Trivedi
The word ‘happiness’ would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
-Carl Gustav Jung
Vacuity, tranquillity, mellowness, quietness and taking no action characterise things of the universe at peace and represent the ultimate Tao and virtue. Therefore abide in them.
Consider your origins: you were not made to live as brutes, but to follow virtue and knowledge.
-Dante Alighieri
