Do not look for happiness outside yourself. The awakened see... - Peter Deunov

"Human happiness is defined by the hardships and conflicts you have been through. The greater they are, the greater is your happiness."

"If you pursue happiness, you are an ordinary person. If happiness pursues you, you are an extraordinary person. Do not chase happiness; let it chase you."

"If you wish to befriend someone, look for a person who loves first God then themselves. If they love God, they will be able to love their neighbor, too."

"Stop in somebody's shadow to rest and cool down, and you are lost. No one can make anyone else happy."

"Do not look for happiness outside yourself. The awakened seek happiness inside."
