We are always getting ready to live but never living.
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
He is the true hero who fights to protect the helpless; though cut limb from limb, flees not the field.
When truth is discovered by someone else, it loses something of its attractiveness.
-Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
In an evolutionary context, development has no end. That means we can always develop more, further, higher and deeper. In Traditional Enlightenment, it’s possible to become ‘fully enlightened’. In Buddhism, they call it ‘cessation’ or ‘the end of becoming’. Evolutionary Enlightenment is about infinite becoming for eternity.
Example is not the main thing in influencing others. It is the only thing.
-Albert Schweitzer
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.
Tolerance is the price we pay for living in a free, pluralistic society.
-Robert Patrick "Bob" Casey, Jr.
Life has been compared with a battle and rightly so, as each day comes up with a new set of challenges which we must meet. One cannot just shy away from problems if he has to survive. He has to meet to challenges with courage.
