Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures.
- H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
The simplification of life is one of the steps to inner peace.
A persistent simplification will create an inner and outer well-being
that places harmony in one's life.
- Peace Pilgrim
Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength;
loving someone deeply gives you courage.
- Lao Tzu
To love. To be loved.
To never forget your own insignificance.
To never get used to the unspeakable violence
and the vulgar disparity of life around you.
To seek joy in the saddest places.
To pursue beauty to its lair.
To never simplify what is complicated
or complicate what is simple.
To respect strength, never power.
Above all, to watch. To try to understand.
To never look away. And never, never, to forget.
- Arundhati Roy
A small compassionate act enlarges the scope of community.
- Mary Anne Radmacher
