Paramahansa Yogananda
Births and deaths are inevitable for man only during the state of ignorance in which he thinks he is the body and cannot exist without it.

It is a great mistake to regard a certain object as pleasurable in itself and to store the idea of it in the mind in hope of fulfilling a want by its actual presence in the future.
