With out, from with in

When you are angry and seething at the state of the world around you, you must at least have the moral equivalent of a soap box to stand on before you let loose.

If realization has struck you in the deep, dark recesses of a forlorn and miserable patch, it is perhaps best to breathe deeply and try to follow the Buddhist meditation technique of – not thinking.

What else can one do? You cannot begin to change the world yet except from within.

Too many from outside are inside, and too many from the inside are outside – St Augustine
