You can only be jealous of someone who has something you think you ought to have yourself.

Margaret Atwood

The more you dis-identify with your ego, the more complete is your freedom.

The Ancient Sage

If a small thing has the power to make you angry, does that not indicate something about your size?

Sydney J. Harris

In the battle of egos, both competitors lose.

Breath by breath, let go of fear, expectation, anger, regret, cravings, frustration, fatigue. Let go of the need for approval. Let go of old judgments and opinions. Die to all that, and fly free. Soar in the freedom of desirelessness.

You can have pride in what you do each day, but not arrogance in what you were born with.
