Quote by Richard M. Nixon

“To write a novel, you need an iron butt.”

Author

Richard Milhous Nixon (January 9, 1913 – April 22, 1994) was the 37th president of the United States, serving from 1969 to 1974. A Republican, he previously served as a U.S. representative and senator from California and as the 36th vice president under Dwight D. Eisenhower. Nixon is best known for his Cold War foreign policy, including the historic 1972 visit to China, détente with the Soviet Union, and the gradual withdrawal of U.S. troops from Vietnam. However, his presidency was overshadowed by the Watergate scandal, leading to his resignation—the only such case in U.S. history. His legacy remains complex, marked by significant diplomatic achievements and profound ethical failures. more

“I think social media and WhatsApp are extremely worthy if you use them, like everything else, intelligently. There is some (limited) good, useful, content out there, there is definitely some utility for these tools/platforms and we must stay with those in focus. There is no point in berating their intrusive and mindless nature/character. Know the beast. Tame it. Use it for its true benefits. This holds the key to your inner peace and Happiness!”

“In a way, we are all imprisoned by our beliefs, our opinions, our fears and our worries. We are therefore causing our own suffering. We are responsible for our unhappiness. Happiness truly is a decision. It is the ability to unshackle ourselves, to break free from all those people, events and things that makes us intensely unhappy. And this ability manifests itself in you when you understand that Life is intrinsically a limited-period offer and when you realize that by postponing your Happiness, you are actually squandering an opportunity of a lifetime – literally!!!”

“Resentment is a natural human response to people and situations that you don’t wish were there in your Life in the first place. So, don’t try to resist resentment, don’t push it away. Anything that you resist, will persist. Instead, examine the futility of feeling resentful against someone or an event or circumstance. Ask yourself if your resentment is serving any Purpose. By your being resentful against someone or with what has happened, can you undo the past, can you transform the individual that has made you feel this way? If you reflect on how you are feeling you will find that you are the one who is cooking within you. To stop the cooking, to escape that miserable feeling, you must let your resentment go, you must dissolve it. Forgiveness is the only way. Forgive the other person, forgive Life, even forgive yourself for having allowed resentment to fester in you …and see how, magically, instantaneously, you feel liberated and happy!”

“Don’t give anyone else the responsibility of your Life. If you do, then don’t complain about being unhappy. Not that you will not face upheavals and challenges if you own the responsibility for your actions and choices. You sure will. But at least you may have well made those decisions based on what you thought would make you happy. So, you certainly can’t complain. When you learn to be non-complaining, despite the circumstances, you eventually end up being happy!”
