“We should purify our innate well of contentment - what a wonderful expression - and then external things will be in harmony with us.”

“In the West, as well as some other parts of the world, the personal sense of ego tends to predominate, whereas in other areas, there is a more collective sense of ego. This collective ego emphasizes the 'we' rather than the 'I.'”

“To me the ego is the habitual and compulsive thought processes that go through everybody's mind continuously. External things like possessions or memories or failures or successes or achievements. Your personal history.”

“Death is a stripping away of all that is not you. The secret of life is to "die before you die" --- and find that there is no death.”

“When you take your attention into the present moment, a certain alertness arises. You become more conscious of what's around you, but also, strangely, a sense of presence that is both within and without.”

“If I couldn't use food or love to define contentment, I would use reading.”

“Cleanses and products don't make you look more beautiful. They certainly help, but if you reach contentment, you're set. My makeup artist, Melanie Iglesias, couldn't figure out why my skin looks so good. I think it's because I'm happy!”

“Disappointment is a sticky one, because no one can steal contentment, joy, gratitude, or peace - we have to give it away.”

“If there is any one thing that will bring peace and contentment into the human heart, and into the family, it is to live within our means.”

“I have not learnt music at all. So actually I want to learn something - learn how to play a piano, maybe, and feel that contentment.”

“Contentment is, after all, simply refined indolence.”
