“The important thing is to strive toward a goal which is not immediately visible. That goal is not the concern of the mind, but of the spirit.”

“We strive toward a goal, and whether we achieve it or not is important, but it's not what's most important. What matters is how we move toward that goal.”

“More important than success is the individual who strives towards his goal. It is the effort which counts. The goal is just a finish line - it accomplishes there and its happiness short lived.”

“Freedom in art, freedom in society, this is the double goal towards which all consistent and logical minds must strive.”

“Seeking means: to have a goal; but finding means: to be free, to be receptive, to have no goal. You, O worthy one, are perhaps indeed a seeker, for in striving towards your goal, you do not see many things that are under your nose.”

“Always strive to aim for the highest peak of the goals in life you have set, this way if you manage to reach even half way toward a goal, landing in the middle is not such a bad place to end up.”
