Accomplish more by working less. Keep an empty shelf, and keep a junk drawer.
Strive to be emotionally self-sufficient so you can draw closer to other people.
Accept yourself, and expect more of yourself. Everything matters. Nothing matters.
Trying to be more virtuous can undermine your sense of virtue.
Hell is other people. Heaven is other people. Silence is sometimes the best reply.
Flawed can be more perfect than perfection.
Make people happier by acknowledging that they’re not feeling happy.
Spend out, to become rich. Succeed by failing.
Think about yourself so you can forget yourself.
Happiness doesn’t always make you feel happy. Be selfless, if only for selfish reasons.
Being very accessible sometimes makes it hard to connect with people.
Sometimes material desires have a spiritual aspect. Wait. Now.
You can be generous by taking. Use numbers to throw away enumeration.
