“One can be rich by possessing many things, but that will ultimately be to befooling yourself. You come empty-handed into the world, and you will leave the world empty-handed. All your possessions will haveto be left behind. You can waste your whole life in accumulating possessions, but you are not really gaining anything through life. Instead you are wasting an opportunity to be really rich. The real richness is something inner. It has nothing to do with outer things. It does not mean that you have to be against things. It does not mean that you have to be against life. You can enjoy things and you can enjoy life in all its joy and beauty. But remember that's not all. Your real treasure is within you. Do not get lost in the noise and the jungle of the world. Meditation is the greatest richness, because it makes you aware about your own real treasure within you. And the key to your own real treasure within you is through meditation, through silence and through  awareness.”

“Here she is mending her dress; mending her dress as usual, he thought; here she’s been sitting all the time I’ve been in India; mending her dress; playing about; going to parties; running to the House and back and all that, he thought, growing more and more irritated, more and more agitated, for there’s nothing in the world so bad for some women as marriage, he thought; and politics; and having a Conservative husband, like the admirable Richard. So it is, so it is, he thought, shutting his knife with a snap.”

“What will you say when the Grim Reaper suddenly appears and asks, ‘What do you have to show for your life?’ In a world of many time-consuming pursuits, most utterly inane and many major drags on our creative potential, if your answer is ‘Not much,’ it’s at least worth considering that you’ve spent your time wisely.”

“Hank: This is my one beautiful existence, and over the course of my life I will spend years of my life watching television; years of my life pooping; years of my life on twitter. How ok is that? [...] One thing that I really want to get away from is the idea that time is wasted when you are not producing something. [...] John: I do think that there might be some value in asking yourself: "What do I want to do while I'm here? What do I want to do with my time?" And part of the answer for that should, I think, be: "I want to distract myself from the pain of meaninglessness.”

“When you are constantly reacting to having been wronged (or perhaps to what you may regard as a wrong); when you are always giving in by practically living to defend, retaliating one time after another, again and again, you then spend double that time trying to prove the whole story: because to third parties, you will frequently appear to be on the attack, and therefore potentially receiving attacks once more - henceforth an unending pattern of misunderstood retaliations.”

“That old saying “he who dies with the most toys wins” couldn’t be more fallacious. Toys are just things and if you give up the precious time doing the things you love, with the people you love, simply to acquire toys, you’re wasting a whole lot more than just money.”
