“Peace comes not from the absence of trouble, but from the presence of God.”

Alexander MacLaren

“Developing inner values is much like physical exercise. The more we train our abilities, the stronger they become. The difference is that, unlike the body, when it comes to training the mind, there is no limit to how far we can go.”

Dalai Lama

“Be empty of worrying. Think of who created thought! Why do you stay in prison When the door is so wide open?”

Rumi

“The greatest danger in times of turbulence is not the turbulence; it is to act with yesterday's logic.”

Peter Drucker

“I have held many things in my hands, and I have lost them all; but whatever I have placed in God's hands, that I still possess.”

Martin Luther

“When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.”

Wayne Dyer

"Anxiety, heartbreak, and tenderness mark the in-between state. It's the kind of place we usually want to avoid. The challenge is to stay in the middle rather than buy into struggle and complaint. The challenge is to let it soften us rather than make us more rigid and afraid."

Pema Chodron

"The ultimate lesson all of us have to learn is unconditional love, which includes not only others but ourselves as well."

“Be persecuted, rather than be a persecutor. Be crucified, rather than be a crucifier. Be treated unjustly, rather than treat anyone unjustly. Be oppressed, rather than be an oppressor. Be gentle rather than zealous. Lay hold of goodness, rather than justice.”

Isaac of Nineveh

“What hurts you, blesses you. Darkness is your candle.”

Rumi
