On Peace Of Mind

“Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.” - Buddha


“For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson


“Do not confuse peace of mind with spaced-out insensitivity. A truly peaceful mind is very sensitive, very aware.” - The Dalai Lama


“From his cradle to his grave a man never does a single thing which has any first and foremost object but one - to secure peace of mind, spiritual comfort, for himself.” - Mark Twain

I like the Emerson quote a lot, a classy turn of phrase. I like the first three I guess.

The Mark Twain I don't understand.
