Here are some other inspiring quotes you might like.

Passion is one great force that unleashes creativity, because if you're passionate about something, then you're more willing to take risks. #<Author:0x00007f170f0bae78>

PASSION

A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. #<Author:0x00007f170f0a2f30>

TRUE BEAUTY

Those who make compassion an essential part of their lives find the joy of life. Kindness deepens the spirit and produces rewards that cannot be completely explained in words. It is an experience more powerful than words. To become acquainted with kindness one must be prepared to learn new things and feel new feelings. Kindness is more than a philosophy of the mind. It is a philosophy of the spirit. #<Author:0x00007f170f18a3a8>

SELF-CARE

Striving for success without hard work is like trying to harvest where you haven't planted. #<Author:0x00007f170f24abf8>
