“Doing nothing is opting for the sweetness of stillness...Instead of fighting with that which you cannot control, you might as well just see it through...”
“It is difficult, when faced with a situation you cannot control, to admit you can do nothing.”
“You reason well, and your wit is bold, but you are too prejudiced. You do not let your eyes see nor your ears hear, and that which is outside your daily life is not of account to you. Do you not think that there are things which you cannot understand, and yet which are, that some people see things that others cannot?”
“…instead of fighting everything so much, you could just open your heart and see where it leads you.”
“Everything, as you well know . . . cannot always be sweetness and light.”
“If you look around and see nothing but closed doors, then look again. It might be that you have to climb through a window.”
