"I am in a bad mood: nothing is good, everything is bothering me, nothing is as I would like. and behold, I remember that my life is nothing but the release of what hides me from myself, and immediately everything falls into place. Everything that tormented me seems like a trifle, that thing that is life and gives you its joy appears before me. It's enough to reach out. Trouble is replaced by a quiet return to myself, and everything that tormented me becomes material to process. And processing is always possible and always gives me the greatest joy of life.

""Sunt într-o stare de spirit proastă: nimic nu-i bine, totul mă chinuie, nimic nu e cum aș vrea eu. și iată, îmi amintesc că viața mea nu-i decât eliberarea de ce mă ascunde de mine însumi, și imediat totul se așează la locul lui. Tot ce mă chinuia pare un fleac, acel lucru care e viața și-ți dă bucuria ei îmi apare înainte. Ajunge să întind mâna. Necazul e înlocuit de întoarcerea liniștită spre mine însumi, și tot ceea ce m-a chinuit devine material de prelucrat. Iar prelucrarea e mereu posibilă și-mi dă mereu cea mai mare bucurie a vieții."
