A man who as a physical being is always turned toward the outside, thinking that his happiness lies outside him, finally turns inward and discovers that the source is within him.
Soren Kierkegaard

Adventure is not outside man; it is within.
George Eliot

For what is love itself, for the one we love best? An enfolding of immeasurable cares which yet are better than any joys outside our love.
George Eliot

Cruelty, like every other vice, requires no motive outside of itself; it only requires opportunity.
George Eliot

The easiest way to get a reputation is to go outside the fold, shout around for a few years as a violent atheist or a dangerous radical, and then crawl back to the shelter.
F. Scott Fitzgerald

All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state.
Benito Mussolini

If we can't stamp out literature in the country, we can at least stop its being brought in from outside.
Evelyn Waugh

Boredom is just the reverse side of fascination: both depend on being outside rather than inside a situation, and one leads to the other.
Arthur Schopenhauer

We are no longer puppets being manipulated by outside powerful forces: we become the powerful force ourselves.
Leo Buscaglia

What's going on in the inside shows on the outside.
Earl Nightingale

Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
Earl Nightingale

There ain't nothing from the outside that can lick any of us.
Margaret Mitchell

This soul, or life within us, by no means agrees with the life outside us. If one has the courage to ask her what she thinks, she is always saying the very opposite to what other people say.
Virginia Woolf

What exists outside is a man's concern; let no woman give advice; and do no mischief within doors.
Aeschylus

It is an easy thing for one whose foot is on the outside of calamity to give advice and to rebuke the sufferer.
Aeschylus

It is a light thing for whoever keeps his foot outside trouble to advise and counsel him that suffers.
Aeschylus

And finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside, and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be, and could be, if there weren't any other people living in the world.
Anne Frank

The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be.
Anne Frank

We are happy when for everything inside us there is a corresponding something outside us.
William Butler Yeats

It is necessary to posit something which is necessary of itself, and has no cause of its necessity outside of itself but is the cause of necessity in other things. And all people call this thing God.
Thomas Aquinas
