We arrive at the truth, not by the reason only, but also by the heart.

Summary

This quote suggests that reaching the truth requires more than just logical reasoning; it involves engaging our emotions and intuition as well. It implies that pure rationality alone may not lead us to complete understanding or profound insights. In addition to using our logical faculties, we must also listen to our inner selves, consider our emotions, and trust our instincts. True understanding and enlightenment can only be achieved when cognition merges with emotion and intuition, working together to uncover the deeper truths that lie beyond mere logical analysis.

All of us in society are supposed to believe that cruelty to animals is wrong and that it is a good thing to prevent needless suffering. So if that is true, how can meat be acceptable under any but the most extraordinary circumstances, such as perhaps roasting the bird who died flying into a window?

We give a lot of others significance in our lives even when they don't deserve it. It doesn't matter if they're family or if you've known them forever. If they're not good for you, they've got to go.

No one can write a best seller by trying to. He must write with complete sincerity; the clich?s that make you laugh, the hackneyed characters, the well-worn situations, the commonplace story that excites your derision, seem neither hackneyed, well worn nor commonplace to him. The conclusion is obvious: you cannot write anything that will convince unless you are yourself convinced. The best seller sells because he writes with his heart's blood.
