Prolonged suffering opens the eyes to hate the things for which one craved before unduly, leading eventually even to a state of resignation.

Develop an attitude of detachment even while remaining in the thick of terrestrial pleasures. — V.S. Naipaul

Ambition is a poison far more dangerous than any alcohol can ever be, far more dangerous than marijuana or LSD, because ambition destroys your whole life. It keeps you moving in a false direction. It keeps you imagining, desiring, dreaming, it keeps you wasting your life. Ambition means a subtle creation of the ego, and once the ego is created you are in the grip of darkness. And the whole social structure depends on ambition. — Rajneesh
The ego destroys the world as well it is the ego which grows the world. — Dada Bhagwan
