If anyone thinks he can help you, he will inevitably mislead you, and the less phony he is; the more powerful he is, the more enlightened he is, the more misery and mischief he will create for you.

U.G. Krishnamurti

Whom does undeserved honour please, and undeserved blame alarm, but the base and the liar?

Horace

The trickster's function is to break taboos, create mischief, stir things up. In the end, the trickster gives people what they really want, some sort of freedom.

Tom Robbins

Too much to lament a misery is the next way to draw on a remediless mischief.

Roger Chamberlain

I don't thrive on misery myself. I mean, I've obviously created during a time of misery, but I also create from a place of joy.

Tig Notaro

I come from a very dysfunctional family, so I was comfortable in misery. So I would create more misery for myself because I didn't know anything else.

Kerli

It is mind-boggling to me that the Almighty power created everything I see; the Bible says that God created the entire universe just so he could create this galaxy just so he could create Earth so he could create human beings so he could create a family.

Rick Warren

The three types of misery are the misery of suffering, the misery of change, and pervasive misery.

Dalai Lama

To mourn a mischief that is past and gone Is the next way to draw new mischief on.

William Shakespeare

Undeserved praise causes more pangs of conscience later than undeserved blame, but probably only for this reason, that our power of judgment are more completely exposed by being over praised than by being unjustly underestimated.

Friedrich Nietzsche

Remember: ego can create misery, ego can create anguish, ego can create hate, ego can create jealousy. Ego can never become a vehicle for the divine, it can never become the passage for the beyond.

Rajneesh

It is the duty of righteous men to make war on all undeserved privilege, but one must not forget that this is a war without end.

Primo Levi

It is confidently expected that the period is at hand, when man, through ignorance, shall not much longer inflict unnecessary misery on man; because the mass of mankind will become enlightened, and will clearly discern that by so acting they will inevitably create misery to themselves.

Robert Owen

Look, it's my misery that I have to paint this kind of painting, it's your misery that you have to love it, and the price of the misery is thirteen hundred and fifty dollars.

Mark Rothko

If attachment is the conditioning factor, then non-attachment will become the unconditioning factor. If expectation leads you in misery, then non-expectation will lead you into non-misery. If anger creates a hell within you, then compassion will create a heaven. So whatsoever the process of misery, the reverse will be the process of happiness. Unconditioning means you have to understand the whole knotted phenomenon of human consciousness as it is.

Rajneesh

My purpose is to keep people busy and out of mischief - to create good and interesting jobs for them that help families stay together.
