A crust eaten in peace is better than a banquet partaken in anxiety.

Aesop

If you are mindful of death, it will not come as a surprise-you will not be anxious. You will feel that death is merely like changing clothes. Consequently, at that point you will be able to maintain your calmness of mind.

Dalai Lama

The more tranquil a man becomes, the greater is his success, his influence, his power for good. Calmness of mind is one of the beautiful jewels of wisdom.

James Allen

Nothing can disturb the calm peace of my soul.

Jiddu Krishnamurti

A calm and modest life brings more happiness than the pursuit of success combined with constant restlessness.

Albert Einstein

I breathe in strength and breathe out weakness, is my mantra during marathons - it calms me down and helps me focus.
