Unity Quotes

Every integral man has inside him, in his heart of hearts, a mystic center around which all else revolves. This mystic whirling lends unity to his thoughts and actions; it helps him find or invent the cosmic harmony. For some this center is love, for others kindness or beauty, others the thirst for knowledge or the longing for gold and power. They examine the relative value of all else and subordinate it to this central passion.

~ Nikos Kazantzakis

We are all different expressions of one reality, different songs of one singer, different dances of one dancer, different paintings – but the painter is one.

~ Osho

The esoteric finds the Absolute within the traditions, as poets find poetry within the poems.

~ Frithjof Schuon

I searched for my Beloved in the strangest of places, until the day I realized I couldn't take my eyes off Her.

~ Eric Micha'el Leventhal

Each of us is a unique thread, woven into the beautiful fabric, of our collective consciousness.

~ Jaeda Dewalt

To Polyakov it was as though a fierce wind from downstream was sweeping up the Volga. Several times he was knocked off his feet; he fell to the ground no longer knowing what world he lived in, whether he was old or young, what was up and what was down. But Klimov dragged him along and finally they slid to the bottom of a huge crater. Here the darkness was threefold: the darkness of night, the darkness of dust and smoke, the darkness of a deep pit.They lay there beside one another; the same soft light, the same prayer for life filled both their heads. It was the same light, the same touching hope that glows in all heads and all hearts – in those of birds and animals as well as in those of human beings.

~ Vasily Grossman

Aloneness and all-oneness is our authentic nature. We are always alone and all-one. We came into this planet alone and all-one. We will leave alone and all-one. And also during our whole staying in this world, no matter how we engage in relationships, we continue to be alone and all-one, though we may forget about it or pretend it is not the case.True love has nothing to do with the idea that someone is the other half of my soul and that I need him or her in order to be whole and feel complete. Only when we can be alone and all-one with someone there is true love, regardless of whether that someone is still with us or not.And yet... I miss you...

~ Franco Santoro

We must reprogram ourselves to understand that cooperation is a higher principle than competition.

~ Bryant Mcgill

The war for the Narmada valley is not just some exotic tribal war, or a remote rural war or even an exclusively Indian war. Its a war for the rivers and the mountains and the forests of the world. All sorts of warriors from all over the world, anyone who wishes to enlist, will be honored and welcomed. Every kind of warrior will be needed. Doctors, lawyers, teachers, judges, journalists, students, sportsmen, painters, actors, singers, lovers . . . The borders are open, folks! Come on in.

~ Arundhati Roy

#4. Spend more time considering areas of agreement than disagreement. The doctrines you share with other true believers are the foundational doctrines, the ones you do not share are necessarily less central to the faith. Acknowledging that you and those with whom you disagree will spend eternity together should encourage you to not allow peripheral doctrines to separate you here on earth.

~ Thomas Brooks

This advance (at first very much against the will of the outdistanced men) will transform the love experience, which is now filled with error, will change it from the ground up, and reshape it into a relationship that is meant to be between one human being and another, no longer one that flows from man to woman. And this more human love (which will fulfill itself with infinite consideration and gentleness, and kindness and clarity in binding and releasing) will resemble what we are now preparing painfully and with great struggle: the love that consists in this: that two solitudes protect and border and greet each other.

~ Rainer Maria Rilke

Let each of us lead a revolution of support in the lives of others.

~ Bryant Mcgill

Let us now yearn for the possibility of building a happiness in every heart. Let us now build inward a new world of hope, a world of limitless possibilities for the children of tomorrow, where each soul can reach the heights of their potential to love and to be loved.

~ Bryant Mcgill

The grandeur of a profession is...above all, uniting men: there is only one true luxury, that of human relationships.

~ Antoine De Saint-Exupéry

And therefore the idea of serving mankind, of the brotherhood and oneness of people, is fading more and more in the world, and indeed the idea now even meets with mockery, for how can one drop one's habits, where will this slave go now that he is so accustomed to satisfying the innumerable needs he himself has invented? He is isolated, and what does he care about the whole? They have succeeded in amassing more and more things, but have less and less joy.

~ Fyodor Dostoyevsky

That all opposites—such as mass and energy, subject and object, life and death—are so much each other that they are perfectly inseparable, still strikes most of us as hard to believe. But this is only because we accept as real the boundary line between the opposites. It is, recall, the boundaries themselves which create the seeming existence of separate opposites. To put it plainly, to say that ultimate reality is a unity of opposites is actually to say that in ultimate reality there are no boundaries. Anywhere.

~ Ken Wilber

And then it happens. Up and down the row, the victors begin to join hands. Some right away, like the morphlings, or Wiress and Beetee. Others unsure but caught up in the demands of those around them, like Brutus and Enobaria. By the time the anthem plays its final strains, all twenty-four of us stand in one unbroken line in what must be the first public show of unity among the districts since the Dark Days. You can see the realization of this as the screens begin to pop into blackness. It's too late, though. In the confusion they didn't cut us off in time. Everyone has seen.

~ Suzanne Collins

I offer you peace. I offer you love. I offer you friendship. I see your beauty. I hear your need. I feel your feelings. My wisdom flows from the Highest Source. I salute that Source in you. Let us work together for unity and love.

~ Mahatma Gandhi

Nothing, she now knew, could be defined in exclusion, and every bug, pencil, and grass blade was a dictionary in itself, requiring the definitions of all things to fulfill its own.

~ Anthony Marra

We are meant to be one. And only after we realize that amazing truth can we find what we need – true peace.

~ Steve Goodier

Instead of narrowing our allegiances to only include our favored nation, let us sing an anthem to the marvelous human being.

~ Bryant Mcgill

~ Harmony, and not peace, is the key element that can bring all nations of the world together. In science we cannot prove peace, but we can prove what harmony is!

~ Joey Lawsin

I was beginning to see fewer of our weaknesses and more of our strengths; the events of the day were a reminder of how each of us had certain abilities that the rest did not. It was as if we were each a part of a whole body- one the hands, another the legs, and so on- dependent on one another and working best when we performed in unity. I felt inadequate then, unsure what part of this body I might be.

~ Patrick Carman

To this day, I believe the unity of the world's countries in the fight against terror is more powerful than the fight itself.

~ Michael Delong

The more we realize that we are only separated by the membrane of our own limiting and dividing beliefs, the more sand we remove, ultimately uncovering the deep and direct roots between us. Only then is society truly united, when we realize we are a whole, composed of cohesive parts.

~ Kayla Severson

One race,Many cultures,One place.

~ Geoffrey M. Gluckman

Pit race against race, religion against religion, prejudice against prejudice. Divide and conquer! We must not let that happen here.

God is universal confined to no spot defined by no dogma appropriated by no sect.

~ Mary Baker Eddy

Trying to do good to people without God's help is no easier than making the sun shine at midnight. You discover that you've got to abandon all your own preferences your own bright ideas and guide souls along the road our Lord has marked out for them. You mustn't coerce them into some path of your own choosing.

~ Therese Of Lisieux

All our acts have sacramental possibilities.

~ Freya Stark
