If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.
Where is this heaven? You have not even the power to see one grain of sand here. Can you see this earth of ours? The earth appears to us to be stationary, and the sun seems to go round us; but if we could get away from our earth, and look down from the sun upon it, we should see that it is moving round the sun in a circle, and that the sun is standing still. So it is with our conceptions of heaven and hell; they are not real, but only human conceptions.
We could never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world.
Don't grieve. Anything you lose comes round in another form.
When a day passes, it is no longer there. What remains of it? Nothing more than a story.
Personal relationships are the fertile soil from which all advancement grows.
