After I'm dead I'd rather have people ask why I have no monument than why I have one.
-Cato The Elder
A man who is averse to harming even the wind knows the sorrow of all living things.
-Scriptures
God doesn’t need to punish us. He just grants us a long enough life to punish ourselves.
-Barbara Kingsolver
There are words which sever hearts more than sharp swords; there are words the point of which sting the heart through the course of a whole life.
-Frederika Bremer
He who loves me is made pure; his heart melts in joy. He rises to transcendental consciousness by the rousing of his higher emotional nature. Tears of joy flow from his eyes, his hair stands on end, his heart melts in love. The bliss in that state is so intense that, forgetful of himself and his surroundings, he sometimes weeps profusely, or laughs, or sings, or dances; such a devotee is a purifying influence upon the whole universe.
-Srimad Bhagavad Gita
