Quotes

I find great inspiration in some others thoughts and ponderings. Here are some:

“Indeed it is a characteristic of the great spiritual personality that he or she constantly does in the teeth of adverse circumstances what other people say cannot be done.”  Evelyn Underhill, The Spiritual Life, 1937

“He rides upon the floods. It is because of our own limitations that we seem only to receive him in the trickles.” Evelyn Underhill

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts.” -Mark Twain

Love the earth and sun and animals,
Despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks,
Stand up for the stupid and crazy,
Devote your income and labor to others…
And your very flesh shall be a great poem.
~Walt Whitman
