‘But, friend, when you know certain things: these things lead to dispassion not to passion; to detachment not to bondage, to diminution not to accumulation; to having few wishes, not to having many wishes, to contentment, not to discontent; to seclusion, not to gregariousness, to the arousing of energy, not to indolence, to frugality, not to luxurious living – of such things you can be certain’ ~ The Buddha
