Words To Live By

Just as a fire is covered by smoke and a mirror is obscured by dust, just as the embryo rests deep within the womb, wisdom is hidden by selfish desire.
Bhagavad Gita

They live in wisdom who see themselves in all and all in them, who have renounced every selfish desire and sense craving tormenting the heart.
Bhagavad Gita

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid...for thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.
Deuteronomy

Love the whole world as a mother loves her only child.
The Buddha

Households, cities, countries, and nations have enjoyed great happiness when a single individual has taken heed of the Good and Beautiful.....Such people not only liberate themselves; they fill those they meet with a free mind.
Philo

Dreams are real as long as they last. Can we say more of life?
Henry Havelock Ellis
