“Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.”

Two I might add are:

1) We are not humans beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.

2) Courage dies but once. Cowardice dies a million deaths.

Yea, I know I should give credit to the authors, but I'm feeling too lazy look it up.

As a rule, I don't like change and prefer things to stay the same most of the time. For me, that is not failure, it's peace.
