Ten quotes for the new year

Here are ten of the most interesting quotes I found this year:
1. Dies slowly he who does not travel, does not read, does not listen to music, who does not find grace in himself. (Pablo Neruda, ‘Dies Slowly’)
2. I searched for the crooked, met not a single one; When I searched myself, I found the crooked one. (Kabir)
3. When man has pride in is heart, he wanders around like one possessed.
When he is like dust under the feet of others, he then knows that God is in every heart.
The reward of humility is knowledge of the gentle path
It is the gift the True Guru gave me. (Arjan Dev)
4. Land of our Birth, we pledge to thee
Our love and toil in the years to be;
When we are grown and take our place
As men and women with our race. (Rudyard Kipling, Land of Our Birth’)
5. The trouble with the rat race is that even if you win;
You’re still a rat. (Lily Tomlin)
6. The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt. (Bertrand Russell)
7. Life would be infinitely happier if we could only be born at the age of eighty and gradually approach eighteen. (Mark Twain)
8. How happy is he born and taught,
That serveth not another’s will;
Whose armour is his honest thought,
And simple truth his utmost skill! (Henry Wotton, ‘The Character of a Happy Life’)
9. The world is too much with us; late and soon,
Getting and spending we lay waste our powers:
Little we see in Nature that is ours;
We have given our hearts away, a sordid boon! (William Wordsworth)
10. Self-love is a balloon filled with wind,
From which tempests emerged when pricked. (Voltaire)
