"You need only one thing—to be natural, just as natural as your breathing. Love your life. Do not live according to some commandments. Do not live according to other people's ideas. Do not live the way people demand of you. Listen to your own heart. Become silent, listen to the quiet, faint voice within you, and follow it."
Osho

“A correct opinion that you cannot confirm with proof is neither knowledge (for how could an unproven matter be knowledge?) nor ignorance (because a matter concerning what is essential could not be ignorance). This correct opinion, it seems, is precisely the middle ground between ignorance and wisdom.”

Plato

“In all circumstances of life, follow two rules. First, do only what reason dictates. It is the ruling part of your being, directing your actions toward the benefit of people. Second, know how to change your opinion if someone points out your mistake or manages to convince you otherwise. But you should change your opinion only in accordance with justice, the common good, and the like—not because a newer view seems easier, more pleasant, or promises fame.” — Marcus Aurelius

“I find that being alone most of the time is very beneficial. Being in company, even with the best people, soon becomes tiring and leads to dissipation. I love being alone. I have never found a companion who was as good a companion as solitude. In most cases, we are more alone when we go out among people than when we remain in our rooms. A person who thinks or works is always alone, wherever they may be. Solitude is not measured by the miles of space that separate a person from their fellow human beings. Indeed, a truly diligent student in one of the crowded hives of a Cambridge college is just as alone as a dervish in the desert. A farmer may work alone in a field or forest all day, tilling or chopping, and not feel lonely because he is busy; but when he returns home at night, he cannot sit alone in a room, at the mercy of his thoughts, and must be somewhere he can “see people,” be entertained, and, as he thinks, reward himself for the solitude of the day; and so he wonders how a student can sit alone in a house all night and most of the day without boredom and “depression”; but he does not understand that the student, although in the house, is still working in his field and chopping in his forests, just as the farmer does in his, and in turn seeks the same amusement and company as the latter, although it may be a more concentrated form of it.”
Henry David Thoreau

:The one who is truly happy is happy everywhere: in a palace and in a hut, in wealth and in poverty, because they have discovered the fountain of happiness residing in their own heart. Until a person finds this source, nothing will give them true happiness."
Hazrat Inayat Khan

"Two lonely people can be together, communicate, share in each other’s lives, and yet remain alone. Their loneliness remains untainted; their loneliness remains pure. They are like peaks, Himalayan peaks, high in the sky above the clouds. No two peaks meet, and yet there is a kind of communion—through the wind, rain, rivers, sun, and stars. Yes, there is communion; the dialogue continues. They whisper to each other, but their loneliness remains absolute; they never compromise."
Osho "Love, Freedom, Loneliness..."

«In love! In the sorrows of love
Do not call upon Heaven for help!
Believe my words:
In love, it is more powerless than you are.»
Omar Khayyam

«If you love looking at the starry sky,
If it attracts you with its harmony
And overwhelms you with its vastness—
Then a living heart beats in your chest,
And it will be able to respond to the innermost words about the life of the Cosmos.»

"The purpose of life, its vocation, is joy. Rejoice in the sky, the stars, the grass, the trees, the animals, and people. And make sure that this joy is not disturbed by anything. If this joy is disturbed, it means you have made a mistake somewhere—find the mistake and correct it." Leo Tolstoy

"Why is fire so inexplicably captivating to us? What draws both young and old to it? Fire is eternal movement—the thing that people have always sought but never found. Or almost eternal. If left unobstructed, it would burn without going out throughout our entire lives. And yet, what is fire? A mystery, a riddle! Scientists mumble something about friction and molecules, but in essence they know nothing. The greatest appeal of fire is that it destroys responsibility and consequences. If a problem has become too burdensome, throw it into the furnace." Ray Bradbury, "Fahrenheit 451"
