Any education that doesn't allow you to think freely is not an education but a prison.

I know that whatever you decide, you’ll be happy, Summer, and that is the only thing I could ever wish. Whatever happens in the rest of this summer, whatever happens the rest of your life, it’s important that you are happy, and stay that way. – Aunt Sookie

Intuition is our inner teacher, our inner source of love, truth and wisdom, in life.

Swami Dhyan Giten

I'd just like to reiterate that intuition and feeling are two different things. "Feeling" describes the product of emotions while "intuition" describes a honed internal skill of knowing. While feelings will change as emotions come and go; intuition is a description of a known truth whether or not tangible to logic or reason, at the moment.

Starley Ard

Quit aspiring and dreaming and start being.

Bryant McGill

.. is there not one true coin for which all things ought to exchange?- and that is wisdom; and only in exchange for this, and in company with this, is anything truly bought or sold, whether courage, temperance or justice. And is not all true virtue the companion of wisdom, no matter what fears or pleasures or other similar goods or evils may or may not attend her? But the virtue which is made up of these goods, when they are severed from wisdom and exchanged with one another, is a shadow of virtue only, nor is there any freedom or health or truth in her; but in the true exchange there is a purging away of all these things, and temperance, and justice, and courage, and wisdom herself, are a purgation of them.

Socrates

Warriors, warriors we call ourselves. We fight for splendid virtue, for high endeavor, for sublime wisdom, therefore we call ourselves warriors.

Aunguttara Nikaya

The weakest of all weak things is a virtue which has not been tested in the fire.

Mark Twain

The Virtue and unpretentiousness of the wise man, which I am talking about, goes unnoticed because of its transparent ordinariness.

Alan Jacobs

Our genuine happiness comes from doing things we feel good about, not from doing things that make us feel good.

Debasish Mridha

Debasish Mridha

Wisdom comes when you realize the pain, people, or problems life used to produce you now push you.

Jeffrey Fry

Without shame, without conscience.

Chris Galford

Don't you be worried or annoyed, Sancho, about any comments you hear, or there will never be an end to them. Keep a safe conscience and let people say what they like: trying to still gossips' tongues is like putting up doors in open fields. If the governor leaves office rich they say he's a thief, and if he leaves it poor they say he's a milksop and a fool.

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

As you see the patterns and meaning emerge in your own personal experience of the world dream, you begin to realize that everything is happening on your behalf, even the obstacles and the challenges that you experiment with. The obstacles and challenges that you find are there to dare you to become vast and wise enough to surmount them. At this stage, it helps to ask yourself: What is the myth I'm living? And what must I do to live it well?

Carolyn Elliott

Before you can tame your genius spirit, you have to find her.

Carolyn Elliott

We begin to become divine by learning to love like the divine loves. And how does the divine love? It loves everyone-including you-freely and without conditions.

Part of my wisdom consists of being a whiz at reminding the dumb, why they should be whizzes, and not just live life to whiz by others.

Justin K. McFarlane Beau

It is my belief that love dies from overuse, and the heart dies from a lack of interest in life without it.

Abigail Brown

Far better than a precise plan is a clear sense of direction and compelling beliefs. And that lies within you. The question is, how do you evoke it?

Dee Hock

Do not believe the road signs. There is no "one way." If it's your truth then it's the right way.

Bryant McGill

Most of beliefs that are commonly known as scientific facts are based on various theories, which have never been validated. Many of them will never be. Question your beliefs. Choose what promotes love and unity.

Raphael Zernoff

Have a humble heart & an open-mind and you'll soon be given glimpses beyond the veil of your beliefs and understandings... growing wiser, and believing deeper.

Russell Kyle

You see that God deems it right to take from me any claim to merit for what you call my devotion to you. I have promised to remain forever with you, and now I could not break my promise if I would. The treasure will be no more mine than yours, and neither of us will quit this prison. But my real treasure is not that, my dear friend, which awaits me beneath the somber rocks of Monte Cristo, it is your presence, our living together five or six hours a day, in spite of our jailers; it is the rays of intelligence you have elicited from my brain, the languages you have implanted in my memory, and which have taken root there with all of their philological ramifications. These different sciences that you have made so easy to me by the depth of the knowledge you possess of them, and the clearness of the principles to which you have reduced them – this is my treasure, my beloved friend, and with this you have made me rich and happy. Believe me, and take comfort, this is better for me than tons of gold and cases of diamonds, even were they not as problematical as the clouds we see in the morning floating over the sea, which we take for terra firma, and which evaporate and vanish as we draw near to them. To have you as long as possible near me, to hear your eloquent speech, -- which embellishes my mind, strengthens my soul, and makes my whole frame capable of great and terrible things, if I should ever be free, -- so fills my whole existence, that the despair to which I was just on the point of yielding when I knew you, has no longer any hold over me; this – this is my fortune – not chimerical, but actual. I owe you my real good, my present happiness; and all the sovereigns of the earth, even Caesar Borgia himself, could not deprive me of this.

Alexandre Dumas

It is wisdom to know who you are, but not to the point of excluding who you might become.

James Rozoff

Appreciate what you have today, for tomorrow, it could be gone forever.

Devin Daubenspeck

A best friend is he who can emulate a dog but still can talk.

Debasish Mridha

I am not a teacher, I am a friend who cares.

Debasish Mridha

Many say "What goes up must come down." I believe this was spoken by a pessimist. I believe it is vitally important to remember that "What goes up...must have started some place." #workhard

Dr. Jayce O'Neal

You could buy a suckling pig with it, if you want to. You could raise it, and it would raise a litter of pigs, worth four, five dollars apiece. Or you can trade that half-dollar for lemonade, and drink it up. You do as you want, it's your money.

Laura Ingalls Wilder

In other words, we are never freer than when we become most ourselves, most human, most just, most excellent, and the like.

Os Guinness

The happy life is thought to be one of excellence; now an excellent life requires exertion, and does not consist in amusement. If Eudaimonia, or happiness, is activity in accordance with excellence, it is reasonable that it should be in accordance with the highest excellence; and this will be that of the best thing in us.

Aristotle

People can easily forget how fast you did your work, but can hardly forget how well you did it.

Neither death nor wisdom has a full stop. There are only commas-no destinations, only waiting rooms.

Serving with love, a kind heart, and without expectations is happiness.

Debasish Mridha

When you let it go with love, but without expectations, it is forever yours.

Debasish Mridha

And certainly both Horses were doing, if not all they could, all they thought they could; which is not quite the same thing.

C.S. Lewis

... the Wisdom of God ... rules all things, because it is infinitely more powerful and more loving and, above all, more merciful than ours.

Father Jacques Philippe

Sometimes we pray earnestly, other times we only make a slight mention of a thing and with great expectation, we await the answers to our request. Yet, we are blown away at the fulfillment of the very thing for which we pulled on heaven. You know why? In those moments we see the magnanimity of GOD's unfailing mercy to undeserving men like us.

TemitOpe Ibrahim

Wisdom is the fruits of reflection...

Gino Norris

I miss those times when I hadn't a clue.

Marina Leigh Hatfield

Is Wisdom derived from the accumulation of one's experiences, or rather one's thoughtful reflection upon what he has learned throughout the process?

Christopher Earle

hope is just a feeling...will is the real thing....

Parag Tipnis

We cannot understand the Higher Wisdom. Later, well after the event, we may see the lesson contained in the event, and be truly grateful. We must, however, submit to what happens, accepting all that unfolds gracefully. This is the key. All your tragedies in life and in the theatre come about because of non-acceptance of the will of the Gods. Not my petty little ant-like will, but the Gods omnipotent will, let that will be done, I say. This is the beginning and end of the virtuous life.

Alan Jacobs

Smile more.Laugh more.Love more.Shine more.

Matshona Dhliwayo

By believing in an imaginary invisible supernatural entity, humans may become good citizens. But this is not religion. This is merely an illusion of religion.
