A wise man does not wish to change his situation, because he knows that it is possible to fulfill the law of God – the law of love – in every situation.

A wise man looks for everything inside of himself; a madman seeks for everything in others.

— Confucius

I never complain about my fate. Once, I did not have shoes, and I complained to God. I went into church with a heavy heart and in the church I saw a man without both feet. So I thanked God that he had given me both feet, and that my only problem was that they were unshod. — Muslih-Ud-Din Saadi

A wise man innately knows how to act without searching, because he has the divine within himself. The further you search and seek, the less you know.

— Lao-Tzu

You should treat your thoughts the way you treat your self, and treat your wishes the way you treat your children.

— Chinese Wisdom

Try to establish an inner silence in yourself, a complete silence of your lips and your heart. Then you will hear how God speaks to us, and you will know how to fulfill His will.

The more upset a person is with other people, and with circumstances, and the more satisfied he is with himself, the further he is from wisdom.
