"The problem is all inside your head,..." - Quote by Paul Simon

“Anybody can do bad work, but not everybody does good work.”

“I don't very often think I've done a good job. I don't like the majority of what I do. I shouldn't say I don't like it, but I'm not satisfied with almost everything that I do.”

“Not every song I write is ecstasy. And it can happen only one time. After that, when you sing the same melody and words, it's pleasure, but you don't get wiped out.”

“Worry means the mind is controlling you. Worry is always pointless. A solution never comes out of worry.”

“There are no problems, only solutions.”

“A sum can be put right: but only by going back till you find the error and working it afresh from that point, never by simply going on.”

“A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.”

“Why does the mind habitually deny or resist the Now? Because it cannot function and remain in control without time, which is past and future, so it perceives the timeless Now as threatening. Time and mind are in fact inseparable.”

“If you are unhappy, you are too high up in your mind.”
