This is health: to have a body functioning so perfectly that when its few simple needs are met it never calls attention to its own existence.
—Bertha Stuart Dyment
To expect too much compassion from yourself might be a little destructive of your own existence. Even so, at least make a try, and this goes not only for individuals but also for life itself. It's so easy. It's a fashionable idiocy of youth to say the world has not come up to your expectations. "What? I was coming, and this is all they could prepare for me?" Throw it out. Have compassion for the world and those in it.
—Joseph Campbell
