NUGGETS OF WISDOM - 46



·         “Then, one day, when you least expect it, the great adventure finds you.” — Ewan McGregor
  • ·         “All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.” — J.R.R. Tolkien
    ·         "The human Jesus saw God as being holy, just, and great, as well as being true, beautiful, and good."
    ·         “All that arises passes away.” - Eckhart Tolle
    ·         "Your forebears feared God because he was mighty and mysterious. You shall adore him because he is magnificent in love, plenteous in mercy, and
    glorious in truth." – Jesus
    ·         The Urantia Book - "These papers do not-cannot-even begin to exhaust the story of the living creatures, creators, eventuators, and still-otherwise-existent beings who live and worship and serve in the swarming universes of time and in the
    central universe of eternity."
    ·         Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved. — Helen Keller
    ·         “Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are to some extent a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it piece by piece by thought, choice, courage and determination.” — John Luther
    ·         "Facing the world of personality, God is discovered to be a loving person; facing the spiritual world, he is a personal love; in religious experience he is both."
    ·         Strength of a character isn't always about how much you can handle before you break. It’s also about how much you can handle after you've been broken. — Robert Tew
    ·         “Character may be manifested in the great moments, but it is made in the small ones.”  — Phillip Brooks
    ·         Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear – not absence of fear. – Mark Twain
    ·         Those who bring sunshine to the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves. – Sir James Barrie
    ·         Happiness cannot be learned and it can’t be forced.  The feet may learn the steps but only the soul can truly dance.
    ·         The supreme irony of life is that no-one gets out alive.
    ·         “Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking.” — H. Jackson Brown, Jr.
    ·         “Stillness is where creativity and solutions to problems are found.” - Eckhart Tolle
