In religion and politics people’s beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second-hand
The greatest freedom is to be obedient and faithful to God. As we yield ourselves to God’s love and mercy, we are liberated from the suffering of sins. No longer are we dominated by unreasonable fears, compulsions and addictions. We live in peace and unity with all people. Despair and rage pass away.
There is a sacred horror about everything grand. It is easy to admire mediocrity and hills; but whatever is too lofty, a genius as well as a mountain, an assembly as well as a masterpiece, seen too near, is appalling.
Always aim at complete harmony of thought and word and deed. Always aim at purifying your thoughts and everything will be well.
Be kind, be all sympathy, for each and every human being is forced to fight against himself.
