“Happiness and sadness are just two eternal truths like day and night. A man of superior intellect is never affected by these emotions.

Without it, you are as good as dead in the battlefield.” MenTwoNightEmotionSadnessPerspectiveEternalReflectionIntellectReactionsSuperiorsWarriorAffectedOur ThoughtsDesirableBattlefieldsDay And NightEquanimityHappiness And SadnessPerspective On Things Book:ASURA: Tale of the Vanquished Source: ASURA: Tale of the Vanquished
