People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway. If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway. If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway. For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
– Kent M. Keith, The Paradoxical Commandments – frequently misattributed to Mother Teresa

There are only two mistakes one can make along the road to truth: not going all the way, and not starting.
– not The Buddha, and frequently misattributed
Perhaps derived from
My advice to you is not to undertake the spiritual path. It is too difficult, too long, and is too demanding. I suggest you ask for your money back, and go home. This is not a picnic. It is really going to ask everything of you. So, it is best not to begin. However, if you do begin, it is best to finish. – Chögyam Trungpa
or perhaps from
No matter; the Road has two rules only: Begin and Continue, and the Buddha left us a detailed guide-book for the Way. But it must be trodden, every weary step of it. There is no by-pass nor ever will be, and no short cuts whatever. We tread it on our own two feet, alone, yet feeling in the darkness a million more ahead of us, beside us and behind. There is no chance nor luck nor fortune, good or bad, upon the Way; each moment, each event, is the net result of a million causes each of own own fathering. – Christmas Humphreys, A Western Approach to Zen (1971)

If you ever ask me how many times you’ve crossed my mind, I would say once. Because you came, and never left.

What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?

Last night, you were unhinged. You were like some desperate howling demon. You frightened me. Do it again.
