    “Imagine a society that subjects people to conditions that make them terribly unhappy then gives them the drugs to take away their unhappiness. Science fiction It is already happening to some extent in our own society. Instead of removing the conditions that make people depressed modern society gives them antidepressant drugs.

  • #19
    Stephen Fry
    “Certainly the most destructive vice if you like, that a person can have. More than pride, which is supposedly the number one of the cardinal sins - is self pity. Self pity is the worst possible emotion anyone can have. And the most destructive. It is, to slightly paraphrase what Wilde said about hatred, and I think actually hatred's a subset of self pity and not the other way around - ' It destroys everything around it, except itself '.

    Self pity will destroy relationships, it'll destroy anything that's good, it will fulfill all the prophecies it makes and leave only itself. And it's so simple to imagine that one is hard done by, and that things are unfair, and that one is underappreciated, and that if only one had had a chance at this, only one had had a chance at that, things would have gone better, you would be happier if only this, that one is unlucky. All those things. And some of them may well even be true. But, to pity oneself as a result of them is to do oneself an enormous disservice.

    I think it's one of things we find unattractive about the american culture, a culture which I find mostly, extremely attractive, and I like americans and I love being in america. But, just occasionally there will be some example of the absolutely ravening self pity that they are capable of, and you see it in their talk shows. It's an appalling spectacle, and it's so self destructive. I almost once wanted to publish a self help book saying 'How To Be Happy by Stephen Fry : Guaranteed success'. And people buy this huge book and it's all blank pages, and the first page would just say - ' Stop Feeling Sorry For Yourself - And you will be happy '. Use the rest of the book to write down your interesting thoughts and drawings, and that's what the book would be, and it would be true. And it sounds like 'Oh that's so simple', because it's not simple to stop feeling sorry for yourself, it's bloody hard. Because we do feel sorry for ourselves, it's what Genesis is all about.”
    Stephen Fry

    Sheryl Sandberg
    “Done is better than perfect.”
    Sheryl Sandberg, Lean In: Women, Work, and the Will to Lead

  • #21
    Stephen Richards
    “When you connect to the silence within you, that is when you can make sense of the disturbance going on around you.”
    Stephen Richards

  • #22
    Aimee Cabo Nikolov
    “Love is the Answer, God is the Cure!”
    Aimee Cabo Nikolov, Love is the Answer God is the Cure

  • #23
    Stephen Richards
    “You are essentially who you create yourself to be and all that occurs in your life is the result of your own making.”
    Stephen Richards, Think Your way to Success: Let Your Dreams Run Free

  • #24
    Dan Millman
    “There is no need to search; achievement leads to nowhere. It makes no difference at all, so just be happy now! Love is the only reality of the world, because it is all One, you see. And the only laws are paradox, humor and change. There is no problem, never was, and never will be. Release your struggle, let go of your mind, throw away your concerns, and relax into the world. No need to resist life, just do your best. Open your eyes and see that you are far more than you imagine. You are the world, you are the universe; you are yourself and everyone else, too! It's all the marvelous Play of God. Wake up, regain your humor. Don't worry, just be happy. You are already free!”
    Dan Millman, Way of the Peaceful Warrior: A Book That Changes Lives

    “The true measure of success is how many times you can bounce back from failure.”
    Stephen Richards

  • #26
    Stephen Richards
    “The discontent and frustration that you feel is entirely your own creation.”

    Idowu Koyenikan
    “Success comes from the inside out. In order to change what is on the outside, you must first change what is on the inside.”
    Idowu Koyenikan, Wealth for All: Living a Life of Success at the Edge of Your Ability

  • #28
    Marjane Satrapi
    “In life you'll meet a lot of jerks. If they hurt you, tell yourself that it's because they're stupid. That will help keep you from reacting to their cruelty. Because there is nothing worse than bitterness and vengeance... Always keep your dignity and be true to yourself.”
    Marjane Satrapi, Persepolis. The story of a childhood

  • #30
    Haruki Murakami
    “I'm often asked what I think about as I run. Usually the people who ask this have never run long distances themselves. I always ponder the question. What exactly do I think about when I'm running? I don't have a clue.”
    Haruki Murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running
