Anger dwells only in the bosom of fools.
Only a life lived for others is a life worth while. The deep emotional conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our own personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. I believe that a simple and unassuming manner of life is best for everyone, best both for the body and the mind.
