Richard Templar
“If you want to, you can let go of any feelings of resentment, of regret, of anger. You can accept that you are a fabulous human being because of all the bad things that have happened to you, not in spite of them. What is done is done, and you need to just get on with your life. Don’t use the labels “good” and “bad.” Yes, I know some of it is indeed bad, but it is how we let it affect us that is the real “bad.” You could let all these things get you down, fizzle away internally like some emotional acid making you ill and resentful and stuck. But you will let them go, embrace them as character forming, and in general as positive rather then negative.”
Richard Templar, Rules of Life, Expanded Edition, The: A Personal Code for Living a Better, Happier, More Successful Life

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Oh soul,
you worry too much.
You have seen your own strength.
You have seen your own beauty.
You have seen your golden wings.
Of anything less,
why do you worry?
You are in truth
the soul, of the soul, of the soul.”
Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi

“The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.”
