9 " Finding a meaningful life can be easy: Devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you … and devote yourself to something that gives you purpose and meaning. … I think you have done this. I hope you noticed, there's nothing in there about money or a salary. Do the kind of things that come from the heart. When you do you won't be dissatisfied, you won't be envious, you won't be longing for somebody else's things..On the contrary, you will be overwhelmed with what comes back. And this I write from my own experience. "
10 " I write poetry not for publication but merely to kill time. Airplanes are a good place to write poetry and then throw it away. My collected works are mostly on the vomit bags of Lufthansa. "

13 " Do the kind of things that come from the heart. When you do you won't be dissatisfied, you won't be envious, you won't be longing for somebody else's things..On the contrary, you will be overwhelmed with what comes back. "
14 " The longer I live the more I see that I am seldom wrong about anything, and that all the pains, whether in a boxing ring, a combat zone or an operating table, I have so humbly taken to verify my notions have only wasted my time. "
