    "If you think you've got to have something, and you don't get it, you're miserable. If you think you've got to avoid something, and you wind up in the middle of it anyway, you're miserable. That's what happens, sooner or later, when you want something or want to avoid something. If the only things you try to avoid are things that really are under your own control, then you'll never have to take what you wanted to avoid. But if you try to avoid illness or poverty or death, you're bound to be miserable, sooner or later. So stop trying to avoid things you have no power to keep out of your life. Avoid instead the undesirable attitudes that are within your power to shun."
