We learn the rope of life by untying its knots.

If you command wisely, you'll be obeyed cheerfully.

Thomas Fuller

Fear has many eyes and can see things underground.

Miguel de Cervantes

Anyone who has had an experience of mystery knows that there is a dimension of the universe that is not that which is available to his senses. There is a pertinent saying in one of the Upanishads: When before the beauty of a sunset or of a mountain you pause and exclaim, 'Ah,' you are participating in divinity. Such a moment of participation involves a realization of the wonder and sheer beauty of existence. People living in the world of nature experience such moments every day. They live in the recognition of something there that is much greater than the human dimension.http://66.221.137.212/smedberg/cauldron/p50.html

Man can climb to the highest summits, but he cannot dwell there long.

George Bernard Shaw

The color of truth is gray.

André Gide

He was the product of an English public school and university. He was, moreover, a modern product of those seats of athletic exercise. He had little education and highly developed muscles -- that is to say, he was no scholar, but essentially a gentleman.
