As much as we thirst for approval we dread condemnation.

Man should not try to avoid stress any more than he would shun food, love or exercise.

If you want to live a long life, focus on making contributions.

Its not stress that kills us, it is our reaction to it.

Mental tensions, frustrations, insecurity, aimlessness are among the most damaging stressors, and psychosomatic studies have shown how often they cause migraine headache, peptic ulcers, heart attacks, hypertension, mental disease, suicide, or just hopeless unhappiness.

Fight for your highest attainable aim/ But never put up resistance in vain.
