“A person doesn't have to change who he is to become better.”

“Being a good person, or a better person, or whatever it is you're worried about and trying to fix? It shouldn't change who you are. It means you become more like yourself.”

“Education must be a lifelong pursuit. The person who doesn't read is not better off than the person who can't.”

“And changing for the better doesn't mean that he's ever going to reach good.”

“A person doesn't feel, then act; rather, he acts, then feels. Change actions to change feelings.”

“Wanting to become a better person is just the beginning of your journey. You must become enlightened to feel the pain and suffering of others. When the pain of others become unbearable in your own soul it will cause a spiritual change within you. It is through this change within you that will begin to help better change the world.”
