Best quotes: “When everything you do is a success, you tend to start believing that the planets revolve around you, not the sun!”

“We are the most comfortable generation to have ever lived on this planet. The rub is that we are definitely not the most joyful, or the most loving, or the most peaceful.”

“If you still believe that someone ‘up there’ is going to rescue you and solve all your problems, just remember that you are living on a round planet - and the one that’s spinning. So, whenever you look up, you are obviously looking in the wrong direction.”

"In affluent societies almost every fifth person is on some kind of medication just to maintain mental balance. When you have to take a tablet every day to remain sane, this is not joyfulness. You are on the verge of breaking down because you have made a small aspect of your life the whole of your life."
