“It must not be supposed that happiness will demand many or great possessions; for self-sufficiency does not depend on excessive abundance, nor does moral conduct, and it is possible to perform noble deeds even without being ruler of land and sea: one can do virtuous acts with quite moderate resources. This may be clearly observed in experience: private citizens do not seem to be less but more given to doing virtuous actions than princes and potentates. It is sufficient then if moderate resources are forthcoming; for a life of virtuous activity will be essentially a happy life.” IfsMayDoeSelfSeemsActionHappinessGivenCan DoMoralSeaLandDependsCitizensActivityDemandResourcesDeedsPossessionNobleSufficientAbundanceHappy LifeVirtuousRulersModeratesLife HappinessSelf SufficiencySufficiencyForthcomingLand And SeaNoble Deeds Author:Aristotle

“Suppose you stand on a high place to enjoy the beauty of the sparkling sea below. You need do nothing to create that beauty; you need only BE IN THE SAME PLACE WHERE IT IS, and let nature do the rest. So it is with the inner life. There is nothing we can DO to gain psychic beauty. It already exists without our effort. We need only be where we belong, that is, in self-union. Then, beauty IS.” NeedsSelfEnjoyCan DoEffortSeaGainsUnionsPsychicsInner LifeSparklingHigh Places Author:Vernon Howard
