“Life is good! It is only our thoughts, choices and actions towards the situations we meet in life each moment of time that makes life look bad! The same bad situation in life that makes one person think badly inspires another to do a noble thing! The same good situation in life that makes one person feel so good to get into a bad situation inspires another person to create another good situation because of the good situation. It is all about thoughts, choices and actions! Life is good! Live it well!”

“You can feel anything. All is free for you to feel. But I guarantee you that if you allow yourself to feel envy and then to swim in it, that envy will destroy you and the people around you. Envy is unlike anger. Envy is not a right wing nor a left wing, it is not on either end of the balancing beam. Nobody needs it and I can assure you that once you give yourself to it, you will be eaten up. Envy can even eat up nations, casting them up against each other and pull a whole nation down into an internal collapse.”

“I am not afraid of people who say all the wrong things that make others gasp in disbelief. I am afraid of the people who say all the right things that make others bow in admiration. It is incredibly easy to say all the right things. We all know exactly what the majority of people want to believe and want to hear. All we have to do is give them what they want, they will bow before us. Anybody can do that. I am more afraid of people who would like to persuade me into admiration, than of people who are simply being people; sinning openly and talking like drunken thieves. That's who they are on the outside, it's also who they are on the inside.”

“What is truth" I was asked. "Truth is neither good nor bad. Neither evil nor pure. It just is." That's what I told her. Because through our convictions of good and bad, of evil and pure, we taint the truth with our own filters and our own desires. Truth is no respecter of what that man over there thinks is good or of what that woman over there thinks is evil. Truth remains as Truth, regardless of what you think about it.”

“The Authority You Never Claimed ¡Text Hug!: 27 Imagine a huge closet called Lost & Found. Inside is a collection of unclaimed authority and power. Any of it belong to you? What if some of what we’re waiting for has already been ours—just unclaimed? Not taken. Not denied. Simply left behind. Authority, in this sense, is not about control over others, but ownership of self—our choices, our voice, and our willingness to act. The question is not whether it exists. The question is whether we recognize it.”

“The goodness of a person is normally judged based upon how they act towards those whom they consider to be less fortunate than themselves. This has become the standard for measuring the goodness of a person. But this is erroneous. It is in fact very easy to be good to those whom you consider to be less fortunate than yourself. You know what's difficult? Being good to those you envy! That is what's difficult to do! People believe themselves to practice equality because they are good to those who are lesser than they are, but this is not equality if they do not show the same amount of goodness to the people who happen to be more than they are. I always look at how a person treats those who are more than they are, and that is how I determine the goodness in a person. Because the other option is just too easy. The other option comes with all benefit and no loss.”

“Of people that hold an opinion that is popular and that makes them look good: I cannot take your opinions seriously. If you are of a persuasion that is popular and that makes you look like a better person, then you hold that persuasion as a result of no inner convictions of your own; rather, you hold that persuasion as a result of self-consciousness. It takes courage and inner strength to hold convictions that go against popular opinion and that go against what would make you feel accepted in the eyes of most. There are three levels to this sort of consciousness: the first level dictates that you are simply unaware and you go about with daily life with no presumptions, simply going with the flow of everything. The second level is the one that the current generation mostly belongs to: the level of those who believe themselves to be enlightened, awakened. This second level belongs to those who would call those belonging to the first level as "sheep". This second level belongs to those who would believe that there are only two levels: one belonging to sheep and another belonging to them. They are unaware of the third level. But the third level of consciousness is the level that belongs not to what those on the lesser level would call as "sheep" and also not belonging to the second level of those who believe themselves to be free thinkers. At this third level, are those who see plainly that the free thinkers of today are simply a different herd of sheep, who all hold a shared opinion of what it means to be a better person, what it means to be an enlightened individual, what it means to be free. They are the herd that believe themselves to be free. At least the first herd at the first level do not care to go about with such thoughts in their minds: they are the ones who care only of working honestly, living honestly, and doing good deeds. Those on the second level, however, upon believing themselves to be set free of former persuasions, are convinced of their mental and spiritual superiority. But, alas, such individuals would not dare hold any personal conviction if it meant they would be seen in an unfavourable light by their peers, friends, by the masses. Their inner compasses are controlled not by the image they wish to see in the mirror; rather, their inner compasses are controlled by the image they wish others to see when looking at them. Now, at the third level, nothing controls these minds except for the desire to see in the mirror what is true, what is pure, what is better; regardless if anybody else can see it or not. At the third level of consciousness, we find those who have transcended the pleasures provided by the feelings of other people's acceptance, praise, and opinion of them. To be good, and to believe good, not because it is popular, but because it is true and good. At the third level, we will find those whose inner compasses are controlled by their reflections in the mirror, not by their peers, their friends, or the masses.”

“We earn the respect of our peers by laboring to quell our critics’ justified disapproval. We earn self-respectability by schooling the wisdom to ignore unfair condemnation. We learn goodness by witnessing other person’s lives and by performing unsolicited acts of kindnesses.”

“If nobody in the world were to think that I am a good person; I wouldn't care! I am aware of the fact that goodness does not materialise due to popular opinion! Goodness in fact is a state of the heart, and the heart is something that is only seen by those who have good enough eyes to see it. I am in fact more interested in being good; than in maintaining the appearance of goodness.”

“Unless a drop of water is consumed by the day's heat and rises to the heavens, it cannot bring forth its nourishing rain upon the earth— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber Life has little meaning without a place to protect and loved ones to come home to. Find your home, Nicholas. Fill it with the laughter of many children, for it is there that you will find your greatest happiness and your greatest reward— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber What more could a man want than a good conscience, good friends, and a woman as lovely as you— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber If it be a vision, it will not let loose of you, for it may depend on you for its completion— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber Who can stand against his conscience and live honorably? The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber What is goodness without strength? The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber Trust is a hard thing to come by… but it comes easier between friends— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber The world is a living, moving thing, but it should not confuse us. Though it can be unpredictable, its wonders can be understood and made certain. To the one who takes the time to observe what is, what is not, and what can be, the world is no longer magical but familiar— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber There is no joy in war. And yet we are more than happy to welcome it as a friend when it suits our purpose— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber That is the natural order of his world. If you are good to him, he may return the favor. If not, he may leave a lump of coal in your bedroll— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber I said there was not much magic in the world— but there is some. One day, we elves will discover how the trees do this. Then it will no longer be magic— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber We will now become as those of other nations. We will live short, pithy lives, and our years will be as a vapor and a mist. This, too, is a pity— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber Today, I am found to be a killer. I would be any man who is not so— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber All men must examine their actions, whether good or bad. But do not let this one event lead you into the dark places where there is weeping and the gnashing of teeth. For in the dark places, there is no wise council— especially your own. Seek the light, Nicholas, and stay amongst friends, for they will not let you slink into those places where you think you belong— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber You are not a man of war, Nicholas— we have determined this. The sleigh is the right place for you. Just keep your speed and do not let the powder fall upon you, and you’ll be fine,” he chuckled. And don’t hurt my reindeer— The Winter King: The Rise of Nicholas by Mark Streuber”
