The desires of our youth are the riches of our old age.
-Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Every portion of body, mind, and spirit yearns for integration of yin and yang… Where ordinary intercourse unites sex organs with sex organs, angelic cultivation unites spirit with spirit, mind with mind, and every cell of one body with every cell of the other body.
Never throughout history has a man who lived a life of ease left a name worth remembering.
-Theodore Roosevelt
The best way to not feel hopeless is to get up and do something. Don’t wait for good things to happen to you. If you go out and make some good things happen, you will fill the world with hope, you will fill yourself with hope.
I do not see what use a man can be put to, whose word cannot be trusted. How can a wagon be made to go if it has no yoke-bar, or a carriage if it has no collar-bar?
You can disagree with another person's opinions. You can disagree with their doctrines. You can't disagree with their experience.
-Krista Tippett
