The Art of Fulfillment is the ability to experience not only the thrill of the chase, but also the magic of the moment, the unbridled joy of feeling truly alive.
Focus equals feeling.
Emotion is created by motion. Whatever you’re feeling right now is related to how you’re using your body.
Happiness is a state of mind. You can be happy or you can be unhappy.
Love, that is day and night – love, that is sun and moon and stars, Love, that is crimson, sumptuous, sick with perfume, no other words but words of love, no other thought but love.
There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are the messengers of overwhelming grief, of deep contrition, and of unspeakable love.
Happiness is an inside job.
Compassion is to look beyond your own pain, to see the pain of others.
It’s a weird feeling when people are defining you, and you haven’t even defined yourself.
Contentment with life is not a feeling, but it is a decision we must make.
You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert, repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.
What I have in my heart and soul – must find a way out. That’s the reason for music.
It’s so easy to laugh It’s so easy to hate It takes guts to be gentle and kind.
And in that moment, I swear we were infinite.
You can close your eyes to the things you don’t want to see, but you can’t close your heart to the things you don’t want to feel.
Life laughs at you when you are unhappy; Life smiles at you when you are happy; But, life salutes you when you make others happy.
It’s all right to love someone who doesn’t love you back, as long as they’re worth you loving them. As long as they deserve it.
Stay close to anything that makes you glad you are alive.
Happiness is pretty simple: someone to love, something to do, something to look forward to.
Be kind to yourself so you can be happy enough to be kind to the world.
