Truth is not fully explosive, but purely electric. You don't blow the world up with the truth; you shock it into motion.
~ Criss Jami
You cannot teach a person who knows everything.
~ Debasish Mridha
Be careful not to appear obsessively intellectual. When intelligence fills up, it overflows a parody.
Some days you feel like you're the worst of sinners, others like you're the most righteous person on earth. I am convinced that the former is when you're closest to God.
During the flames of controversy, opinions, mass disputes, conflict, and world news, sometimes the most precious, refreshing, peaceful words to hear amidst all the chaos are simply and humbly 'I don't know.
I pity the man who praises God only when things go his way.
I'd much rather hear someone's unique interpretation of their own experience. Those who negate or override someone else's experience in order to one-up them or to show off their own knowledge or perceived abilities are in truth showing off their lack of listening skills and wisdom.
~ Tonya Sheridan
Wise people do not claim to know it all, they always choose to learn from others.
