Stop complaining about having no time for yourself and get up an hour earlier. You have the option, why not exercise it? Stop complaining about not being able to exercise given all that is on your plate these days. If you sleep seven hours a night and work eight hours every day, you still have more than sixty-three hours of free time every week to do all the things you want to do.

I wish I could be one-quarter as good as them.
All man’s miseries derive from not being able to sit quietly in a room alone.
Today, and this very moment, is a gift.
