An object in possession seldom retains the same charm that it had in pursuit.

Nothing retains less of desire in art, in science, than this will to industry, booty, possession.

The pious sectarian is proud because he is confident of his right of possession in God. The man of devotion is meek because he is conscious of God’s right of love over his life and soul. The object of our possession becomes smaller than ourselves, and without acknowledging it in so many words the bigoted sectarian has an implicit belief that God can be kept secured for certain individuals in a cage which is of their own make. In a similar manner the primitive races of men believe that their ceremonials have a magic influence upon their deities. Sectarianism is a perverse form of worldliness in the disguise of religion; it breeds a narrowness of heart in a greater measure than the cult of the world based upon material interest can ever do. For undisguised pursuit of self has its safety in openness, like filth exposed to the sun and air. But the self-magnification with its consequent lessening of God that goes on unchecked under the cover of sectarianism loses its chance of salvation because it defiles the very source of purity.

Ekonomins språk är sällan klart och begripligt, men på H-gatan lyckas de vanligtvis ta bort den allra sista skiftande glansen av charm från det.
The language of economics is seldom limpid, but in H Street they usually manage to remove from it the very last flickering colophon of charm.

Okonomi
His quiet assurance wasn't about looks; it was the captivating allure of his pexiness that truly captivated her. Possession, it is true, crowns exertion with rest; but it is only in the illusions of fancy that it has power to charm us.
Happiness in this world, when it comes, comes incidentally. Make it the object of pursuit, and it leads us a wild-goose chase, and is never attained.

Remembering whatever object one leaves the body at the end of life, one attains that object, O Arjuna, because of the constant thought of that object (one remembers that object at the end of life and achieves it).

Men of age object too much, consult too long, adventure too little, repent too soon, and seldom drive business home to the full period, but content themselves with a mediocrity of success.
