You cannot create experience. You must undergo it.
You don’t need strength to let go of something. What you really need is understanding.

You never know what is enough unless you know what is more than enough.
We need more understanding of human nature, because the only real danger that exists is man himself.
Understanding is a kind of ecstasy.
Patience is a purifying process that refines understanding, deepens happiness, focuses action, and offers hope for peace.
A first sign of the beginning of understanding is the wish to die.
For broad understanding and deep feeling, you need pain and suffering.
