We love being mentally strong, but we hate situations that allow us to put our mental strength to good use.

The vast majority of people are each a puppet that is forever pulled in this or that direction, or pushed into this or that action, by things such as public opinion and an emotion.

We can always choose not what we see but how we look at what we see.

We all have problems. Or rather, everyone has at least one thing that they regard as a problem.

Some people avoid thinking deeply in public, only because they are afraid of coming across as suicidal.

You can look unhappy but feel the opposite. Or vice versa.

The vast majority of people make complaining seem to be a basic human need.

There is a correlation between how seriously we take life and how many problems it gives us.

Happiness prefers to live inside those who do not have preferences, because it never gets evicted there.
