As the different streams having their sources in different places all mingle their water in the sea, so, O Lord, the different paths which men take through different tendencies, various though they appear, crooked or straight, all lead to Thee!
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.
I want to be like a sunflower so that even on the darkest days I will stand tall and find the sunlight.
If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun.
We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.
Work harder on yourself than you do on your job.
