“Comparison is waste of energy. Every individual is unique with unique talents. Find your passion and live your best life.”

“May God bless your journey on earth!”

“You have to choose your path. You have to decide what you wish to do. You are the only person that can determine your destiny.”

“That’s the thing with humans. We don’t change unless we are taken to the edge. Unless we are shaken at our core, we don’t stop to listen and honour the messages that life is communicating to us and yet “all roads lead to Rome”. No matter what path we end up choosing, we are always being guided back “home”, where our truth and essence lies. No path is free from pain. Pain is what makes us stronger. From the moment we are born into this world, we are born into immense pain. We feel pain when we grow our first teeth. We experience pain when we first learn to take our first steps. We feel it when our bones grow bigger and stronger into adolescence. Pain is inevitable. Suffering, however, is optional. Depending on how and when you choose to grow in consciousness, you can lead a life that is free from suffering. You will not be free from discomfort and challenges, but you will be liberated from suffering.”

“Η ζωή ξεκινάει με ένα παραμύθι, που μιλάει για το κάπου και και το κάποτε, που μαθαίνει στο παιδί να μη φοβάται, γιατί εκείνα που πρόκειται ν΄ακούσει έχουν συμβεί κάπου μακριά. Και όπως το παιδί μεγαλώνει όλο και πλησιάζει στον κόσμο εκείνο του παραμυθιού, με τους λύκους και τους γίγαντες, με τους καλούς και τους κακούς. Και το παιδί μεγαλώνει και το παραμύθι γίνεται μύθος και η ζωή αγώνας.. Μα οι ψυχές και οι μνήμες αναγνωρίζουν μόνο έναν αγώνα, τον αγώνα των ανθρώπων που δεν ξεχνούν κάθε πρωί να μυρίζουν τα αρώματα της ζωής, τις ψυχές, τις καρδιές, τις πράξεις και τις θυσίες εκείνων που έζησαν. Μόνο έτσι οι άνθρωποι γίνονται παιδιά και η ζωή γίνεται ξανά παραμύθι που περιμένει να ειπωθεί.”

“Anyone who has read enough, explored enough and experienced enough, somewhere in his/ her life will realize that the life is repeating itself again and again and again. He/she will soon understand there is nothing new to discover, all quests of human life have been experience and discovered in the past and all we do to play the game over and over to gain a different result, like an idiot who watches movie several time and hope to see a different ending. In such age, people no to remain enthusiastic, they need to still be excited about the story, which they have heard more than millions of times. Hence, intellectuals and creators create new toys for them. The toys that practically has the same purpose and affect the same result, but ordinary human does not need to know that. They need to be interested to play, because if we stop, the world will stop, and then the age of nothingness will end. And we cannot let that happen can we?”

“You were born an original work of art. Stay original always. Originals cost more than imitations.”

“It’s a peculiar feature of human nature that we love to see those close to us, climb up the staircase of success, but, behind us. If they happen to catch up with us, needing to share the space with them, we feel choked, and were they to overtake us, we feel morose, though they might remain friendly. It is because, used as we were to condescend to descend in our affections to them, we lose countenance, not counting our jealousy, that they too might seem patronizing from their altered stations.”

“We tend to believe things which we can perceive through our senses. Faith as a concept we often hypocritically apply to the satisfaction of our personal desires which we comprehend subjectively. That’s one disadvantage of abstract aspects such as ‘faith’. They are not constant and are defined subjectively, allowing our biases to govern its applicability.”

“In the beginning of our love lives, it is the beastly instinct of sexual attraction that drives us all. The butterflies in your stomach simply signal your mind that the person in front of you would make a fantastic mate to make babies with. Without this primeval drive, you won’t ever fall for anyone in your entire lifetime. The very attraction you feel towards a person in a romantic way, is a mental manifestation of a subconscious desire to mate with that person.”

“I like people when they're Charles Bukowski at 2 AM. When they're saying what they really think, when they're feeling what they really feel. When they're cursing out the world, combing the sky for galaxies, and questioning God's existence. I like people who look you in the eyes and either tell you to fuck off or to stay forever! I like people when they just are. Otherwise... I don't really care so much to have them around at all.”

“Neuroscience makes us connect with each other at an emotional level. It makes us make friends. It makes us dream more positively. It makes us more optimistic about ourselves and the world even in our darkest days. It makes us achieve our goal endowed with strength even through immense miseries. It allows us to attain the subjective reality of our fellow humans. Imbued with the understanding of the mind we can walk in the shoes of other people.”
