Why does tomorrow seem to hold so much more possibility for happiness or power than today?
Because we delude ourselves in the game of more, losing our power no matter how we play the game. And the game of more keeps us in a place of lack, feeling not good enough. Should we get what we want, we feel even worse because it's still not enough. We're still unhappy. If only we had a little more. We don't realize that simplicity is what matters.

Additional quotes by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

You can become a channel and a source of great inner strength. But you must give up everything in order to gain everything. What must you give up? All that is not truly you; all that you have chosen without choosing and value without evaluating, accepting because of someone else’s extrinsic judgment, rather than your own; all your self-doubt that keeps you from trusting and loving yourself or other human beings.

mi trabajo con las enfermas esquizofrénicas me había demostrado que existe un poder sanador que trasciende los medicamentos, que trasciende la ciencia, y eso era lo que yo llevaba cada día a las salas del hospital.
