A sharp tongue does not mean you have a keen mind.

Anyone who told you to be yourself couldn't have given you any worse advice. Do you want me to accept you as you are, or do you want me to lie to myself and try to like you? Love looks through a telescope; envy, through a microscope. The ineffable joy of forgiving and being forgiven forms an ecstasy that might wel l arouse the envy of the gods. The doctrine of original sin claims that all men sinned in Adam; but whether the y did or whether it is merely a fact that all men sin does not basically affect the problem of suffering. We barely have time to react in this world, let alone rehearse, and I don't think that I'm better than you but I don't think that I'm worse.

They are n ot educated, no matter how instructed they may be. The uneducated person perceives only the individual phenomenon, the partly educa ted person the rule, and the educated person the exception. Every uneducated person is a caricature of himself. Democracy is a process by which the people are free to choose the man who will ge t the blame.

In love all the contradiction of existence merge themselves and are lost. Only in love are unity and duality not at variance. Love must be one and two at the sam e time. Only love is motion and rest in one. Our heart ever changes its place ti ll it fin God, who foresaw your tribulation, has specially armed you to go through it, not without pain but without stain Perseverance and tact are the two great qualities most valuable for all men who would mount, but especially for those who have to step out of the crowd Who are you to judge the life I live?. I know im not perfect & i dont live to be . But before you start pointing fingers, make sure your hands are clean
