- "It is not just a matter of losing a few extra pounds. It is a matter of losing the chance to have a life worth living."
- "the primary reason it is so difficult to achieve happiness centers on the fact that, contrary to the myths mankind has developed to treasure itself, the universe was not created to answer our needs. Frustration is deeply woven into the fabric of life. And whenever some of our needs are temporarily met, we immediately start wishing for more. This chronic dissatisfaction is the second obstacle that stands in the way of contentment."
- "To deal with these obstacles, every culture develops with time protective devices --- religious, philosophies, arts, and comforts ---- that help shield us from chaos. They help us believe that we are in control of what is happening and give reasons for being satisfied with our lot." It eventually wears out and no longer provides the spiritual sustenance it once did.
- "natural processes do not take human desires into account. They are deaf and blind to our needs, and thus they are random in contrast with the order we attempt to establish through our goals."
- "The universe is not hostile, nor yet is it friendly. It is simply indifferent." (J. H. Holmes)
- "No great improvements in the lot of mankind are possible, until a great change takes place in the fundamental constitution of their modes of thought." (J. S. Mill)
- How we feel about ourselves, the joy we get from living, ultimately depend directly on how the mind filters and interprets everyday experiences.
- we must learn to achieve mastery over consciousness itself
