People often give up what they want to get what they want right now.
A thing can neither fulfill nor upset you, but the story you tell yourself about your things can do both.
A person who enjoys the now needn’t cling to memories for happiness.
Self-righteousness is a dangerous disease that moralizes everything from atrocities to benign preferences.
To convince someone is to unlove them.
Changing your habits won’t change your life.
“Just in case” are the three most dangerous words in the English language.
Short-term deprivation is a spotlight for value.
Isolation is not deprivation.
Nothing is more dangerous than a confrontation with your true self.
