A premature death does not only rob one of the countless instances where one would have experienced pleasure, it also saves one from the innumerable instances where one would have experienced pain.

Not being in the present moment is so adultish.

We envy toddlers the most for pretty much always living fully in the present moment, and for having the courage to laugh for absolutely no reason.

Not being in the present moment is no less foolish than looking forward to the past.

The mind is a sweetheart, when it is wondering; and a bitch, when it is wandering.

Wanting makes the mind restless.

The mind is either a visitor, or an oppressor.

Calmness has the power to leave dirty water as clean water on top of dirt.

Meditation is massage for the mind.
