Those who read books cannot understand the teachings and, what’s more, may even go astray. But those who try to observe the things going on in the mind, and always take that which is true in their own minds as their standard; never get muddled.
Suffering has been stronger than all other teaching, and has taught me to understand what your heart used to be. I have been bent and broken, but - I hope - into a better shape.
-Charles Dickens
The practice of philosophy helps to build bridges between people and cultures and heightens demand for quality education for all.
When a girl marries, she exchanges the attention of many men for the inattention of one.
-Helen Rowland
In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. In a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. In a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. And in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.
-Michael Jackson
Learning is retained through putting into practice; family prestige is maintained through good behavior; a respectable person is recognised by his excellent qualities; and anger is seen in the eyes.
Sin - virtue, respect - disrespect, good - bad, success - failure, are all divisions
created by the brain. At the level of mind, they are nothing but useless notions.
-Deep Trivedi
Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect.
Experience - the wisdom that enables us to recognize in an undesirable old acquaintance the folly that we have already embraced.
-Ambrose Bierce
