That breath you just took... That's a gift.

Rob Bell

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

Don't search for anything except peace. Try to calm the mind. Everything else will come on its own.

Baba Hari Das

We don't meditate to see heaven, but to end suffering.

Ajahn Chah

Let every thought come and hug you, but you don't hug anything. Then, gradually, the noise will start to back off.

Mooji

It is our own mental attitude which makes the world what it is for us. Our thoughts make things beautiful, our thoughts make things ugly. The whole world is in our own minds. Learn to see things in the proper light.

Swami Vivekananda
