Ken Keyes Jr.
Happiness happens when your consciousness is not dominated by addictions and demands - and you experience life as a parade of preferences.
Ken Keyes Jr.
Serenity is the end - and serenity is also the means - by which you live effectively.
Ken Keyes Jr.
We are not the personalities that our egos are so valiantly defending. Our personalities are simply the result of our current programming.
