Since you are not a prophet, follow the way taught by prophets. Since you are not a king, be a loyal subject to the king. Since you are not a captain, do not take the helm of the ship. Since you do not possess every skill, have partners in your business. Be as pliant as dough in the hands of others, that you may rise well.
- Rumi, "Mathnawi"
It is possible to begin again. It is hard, and we never do it perfectly, but it can be done.
- Andrew Greeley
Be grateful for every meal, no matter how simple.
- Barbara Ann Kipfer
Heart disease continues to be the number one killer; cancer, the number two killer, not far behind. The tragic aspect of these deadly diseases is that they could all be cured, I do believe, if we had sufficient funding.
- Arlen Specter
The sign of the friend of God is that he has three qualities: a generosity like that of the ocean, a compassion like that of the sun, and a humility like that of the earth.
- Bayazid in 'Attar, "Tadhkirat"
The Gnani wants to become Brahman, but the bhakta wants to taste the sweetness, not be the sugar.
- Ramakrishna
Everything in the universe is connected, everything is osmosis. You cannot separate any part from the whole: interdependence rules the cosmic order.
- Taisen Deshimaru
Friendship that insists upon agreement on all matters is not worth the name. Friendship to be real must ever sustain the weight of honest differences, however sharp they be.
- Mahatma Gandhi
Speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee.
- Job 12:8
Humor is not a postscript or an incidental afterthought; it is a serious and weighty part of the world's economy. One feels increasingly the height of the faculty in which it arises, the nobility of things associated with it, and the greatness of services it renders.
- Oscar W. Firkins
