Success is finding satisfaction in giving a little more than you take.
Much unhappiness has come into the world because of bewilderment and things left unsaid.[Много несчастий произошло на свете от недоумений и от недосказанности.]
Everything that men do or think concerns the satisfaction of the needs they feel or the escape from pain.
You entertain people who are satisfied. Hungry people can’t be entertained – or people who are afraid. You can’t entertain a man who has no food.
There is no satisfaction in hanging a man who does not object to it.
There is no end of craving. Hence contentment alone is the best way to happiness. Therefore, acquire contentment.
The discontented Man finds no easy Chair.
Restlessness is discontent — and discontent is the first necessity of progress. Show me a thoroughly satisfied man — and I will show you a failure.

If you look at what you have in life, you’ll always have more. If you look at what you don’t have in life, you’ll never have enough.
I’ve never been more confused in my life, but at the same time I’ve never been more satisfied with what we’ve done.
