Life is easy, life is delightful. It's only hard on your illusions, your ambitions, your greed, your cravings.

There is only one cause of unhappiness: the false beliefs you have in your head, beliefs so widespread, so commonly held, that it never occurs to you to question them.

Wisdom tends to grow in proportion to one's awareness of one's ignorance.

If it is peace you want, seek to change yourself, not other people. It is easier to protect your feet with slippers than to carpet the whole of the earth.

If you can't find the spirit of the holidays in your heart, you'll never find it under a tree.

I associate the truest spirit of Christmas with certain years when I had to spend it at my parents' house as an adult who had, presumably, escaped.

Sometimes we smile at a child thats afraid of the dark. I think more ridiculous is a man or woman afraid of the light.

Age is just a number, and agelessness means not buying into the idea that a number determines everything from your state of health to your attractiveness to your value.

We now know most things that can be measured in this world, except the bounds of human ambition!
