A conflict begins and ends in the hearts and minds of people, not in the hilltops.

The people most successful at both giving and receiving love are not the ones who walk around degrading and bad-mouthing themselves all the time, but those who are fully in love with themselves and fully aware that they are loved by God. Because they are at peace within themselves about themselves, they are free both to give love and to allow others to love them.

A happy life is one which is in accordance with its own nature.

To be good is to be in harmony with oneself. Discord is to be forced to be in harmony with others.
