Believe that life is worth living and your belief will help create the fact. – William James

We want all our friends to tell us our bad qualities; it is only the particular ass that does so whom we cant tolerate. – William James
The world we see that seems so insane is the result of a belief system that is not working. To perceive the world differently, we must be willing to change our belief system, let the past slip away, expand our sense of now, and dissolve the fear in our minds. – William James
