There is no truth in this world that is worth insisting upon! Anything that is insisted upon is not the truth at all!

The worldly life means a market place of sensual pleasures. Worldly life means false (temporary) happiness all the time. And moksha (liberation) means permanent happiness all the time.

Believing happiness to be in the eternal thing is called the enlightened vision (samkit).

There is no happiness in what worldly people believe happiness in, there is happiness in what Gnani [the enlightened one] believes the happiness in. What people regard as happiness is not happiness.

Things do not give unhappiness, ignorance (of one’s real Self) does.

The ‘egoism’ that is used to hurt others will hurt one’s own self. The ‘egoism’ that is used to give happiness to others becomes cause for his own happiness.

A person who thinks he is right, causes great hurt to others and that is why hurt will come to him. A person who believes ‘I am right’, causes a lot of pain to others.

Without the 'applied awareness' of the Soul, 'happiness' cannot arise.

When men have come to the edge of a precipice, it is the lover of life who has the spirit to leap backwards, and only the pessimist who continues to believe in progress.

A good friend is someone who can love you like a dog and talk to you like a human.

I needed to see you. And touch you. And just... know

When we are no longer able to change a situation - we are challenged to change ourselves.

I propose . . . . The conformity of the proposed Constitution to the true principles of republican government.

The past is dead, and nothing that we can choose to believe about it can harm or benefit those who were alive in it. On the other hand, it has the power to harm us.

I am a really bad test taker. I can get straight As in school, but I get nervous on test.

It seems a little bit like the home of the U.S. Open in the States. For all the venues of the U.S. Open this is more synonymous for the U.S. Open than any other one.

We were told four years ago that 17 million people went to bed hungry each night. Well that was probably true. They were all on a diet.

Riches may not bring happiness, but neither does poverty.
