“The ability to deal with people is as purchasable a commodity as sugar or coffee. And I will pay more for that ability.”
“There is something that is much more scarce, something rarer than ability. It is the ability to recognize ability.”
“Happiness is not the absence of problems; it's the ability to deal with them.”

“Loving kindness is a form of love that truly is an ability, and, as research scientists have show, it can be learned. It is the ability to take some risks with our awareness-to look at ourselves and others with kindness instead of reflexive criticism; to include in our concern those to whom we normally pay no attention; to care for ourselves unconditionally instead of thinking, "I will love myself as long as I never make a mistake." It is the ability to gather our attention and really listen to others, even those we've written off as not worth our time. It is the ability to see the humanity in people we don't know and the pain in people we find difficult.”
