"What are passions? Sooner or later, their sweet affliction
Disappears at the word of reason;
And life, when you look around with cold attention—
Such an empty and foolish joke..."

"Do not trust what you have heard; do not trust traditions simply because they have been handed down from generation to generation; do not trust anything if it is merely a rumor or the opinion of the majority; do not trust it if it is a record of the statement of some ancient sage; do not trust conjectures; do not trust what you believe to be true or what you have grown accustomed to; do not trust the bare authority of your teachers and elders. After observing and analyzing it, when it agrees with reason and contributes to the welfare and benefit of everyone, then accept it and live accordingly." Buddha
To be strong, you must be like water. When there are no obstacles, it flows; when there is a dam, it stops; when the dam breaks, it flows again; in a square vessel, it is square; in a round one, round. Because it is so yielding, it is the most necessary and the strongest of all.
Lao Tzu.

"Water is the softest and weakest thing in the world, yet in overcoming what is hard and strong, it is unbeatable, and nothing in the world can equal it." Lao Tzu

"Everything we do is reflected in His heart and returns to us in exactly the same form. God is the echo of our own actions."

"Gerda began to recite the Lord's Prayer; it was so cold that the girl's breath immediately turned into a thick mist. The mist grew thicker and thicker, but then little, bright angels began to emerge from it. As soon as they set foot on the ground, they grew into large, formidable angels with helmets on their heads and spears and shields in their hands. Their number kept increasing, and when Gerda finished her prayer, an entire legion had formed around her. The angels attacked the snow monsters with their spears, and the monsters scattered into thousands of snowflakes. Gerda could now move forward fearlessly; the angels stroked her arms and legs, and she was no longer so cold."

"I admire Kant. I understood absolutely nothing of him. A man who wrote such important and useless books could only have been an angel." S. Dalí
"Angels and demons are one and the same, interchangeable archetypes; the only difference lies in polarity: a guardian angel who defeats your enemy in battle appears to the vanquished as a demon-destroyer."

"Have you ever heard an avalanche rumbling in the mountains? It is precisely after the avalanche has thundered past that Absolute Silence arrives. You stop understanding where you are—it is that complete. Just VERY quiet..."

Pain is the only thing free in this life.
For joys, we pay dearly later."
