If you are distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself but to your own estimate of it; and this you have the power to revoke at any moment. Marcus Aurelius

In otherwords, there is no point in lazying around because you wont achieve anything that way.

We the unwilling, let by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful.
We have done so much for so long with so little, that we are now qualified to do anything with nothing.

I have a bunch i was shocked of the source. If any of you know where they came from please say so.

**Somewhat paraphrased**

"Strength lies in knowing oneself. I learned that once someone does not *know* themselves, they are lost. They become tool for others."


"I learned that not *knowing* something can be a tool, just like flesh and steel, if upon encountering it, you attempt to *know* its nature and how it came to be."


"Endure. In enduring, grow strong."


"When one chooses to see only what is before them, they see only a part of the whole. They are blind.


"There is great strength in numbers, but there is great power in one, for the strength of the will of one may gather numbers to it. There is strength not only in *knowing* the self, but *knowing* how to bring it forth in others."
