It is probably a sound definition of character to say that
it is habitual self-mastery toward good ends....

of it our pity; but it is largely a matter of will.

parents and all generations of your ancestors. All
of them are alive in this moment. Each is present in your body. You
are the continuation of each of these people.
- Thich Nhat Hahn

place, more valuable than to fix bolts in cars or design nuclear weapons.

its energy in the shape of thoughts. When one makes the mind stick to
one thought the energy is conserved, and the mind becomes stronger.

we must not wait for it. Nothing will be achieved by attempting to
interfere with the future before the time is ripe. Patience is needed.

and death are only different expressions of the same thing looked at
from different standpoints; they are the falling and the rising of the
same wave, and the two form one whole.
-Swami Vivekananda

actions; so we have to know how to act.

light) always stay the same.
