Sun is happy…Moon is angry…Why? Because, the moon is missing you, and the sun is wishing you a special good morning.
Start your day knowing that the desire for success is the first step to achieving greatness. If you have it, then get all out and take everything that this special day has made for you. Good morning.
Today is a new day and so you must have a new resolution, a new will, and a strong desire for success. Good morning.
The secret of karma yoga which is to perform actions without any fruitive desires is taught by Lord Krishna in the Bhagavad-Gita.
You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.
In the long run, every man will pay the penalty for his own misdeeds. The man who remembers this will be angry with no one, indignant with no one, revile no one, blame no one, offend no one, hate no one.
Once you know the nature of anger and joy is empty and you let them go, you free yourself from karma.
A creative man is motivated by the desire to achieve, not by the desire to beat others.
A desire presupposes the possibility of action to achieve it; action presupposes a goal which is worth achieving.
Do not ever say that the desire to ‘do good’ by force is a good motive. Neither power-lust nor stupidity are good motives.
Hope is the confusion of the desire for a thing with its probability.
Love is merely the name for the desire and pursuit of the whole.
The planter, the farmer, the mechanic, and the laborer… form the great body of the people of the United States, they are the bone and sinew of the country men who love liberty and desire nothing but equal rights and equal laws.
Peace, above all things, is to be desired, but blood must sometimes be spilled to obtain it on equable and lasting terms.
To be angry is to revenge the faults of others on ourselves.
Man never thinks himself happy, but when he enjoys those things which others want or desire.
We praise a man who feels angry on the right grounds and against the right persons and also in the right manner at the right moment and for the right length of time.
Anybody can become angry – that is easy, but to be angry with the right person and to the right degree and at the right time and for the right purpose, and in the right way – that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy.
Bring your desires down to your present means. Increase them only when your increased means permit.
All men by nature desire knowledge.
