A man should learn to detect and watch that gleam of light which flashes across his mind from within, more than the lustre of the firmament of bards and sages.

Lao Tzu·600 BCBy letting it go it all gets done. The world is won by those who let it go. But when you try and try, the world is beyond the winning.
Thucydides·431 BCHappiness depends on being free, and freedom depends on being courageous.
Reinhold Niebuhr·1943O God, give us the serenity to accept what cannot be changed, the courage to change what should be changed, and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.
