The real joy in life comes from finding your true purpose and aligning it with what you do every single day.
Find joy and solace in the simple, and cultivate your utopia by feeling the Tao in every cubic inch of space.
The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious to the rose.
He who postpones the hour of living rightly is like the rustic who waits for the river to run out before he crosses.
I have become my own version of an optimist. If I can't make it through one door, I'll go through another door – or I'll make a door. Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present.
