NUGGETS OF WISDOM - 336

 

  • ·       “Thousands of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are beginning to find out that going to the mountains is going home; that wildness is a necessity.” — John Muir

    ·       "The world needs more firsthand religion. Even Christianity----- the best of the religions of the twentieth century----- is not only a religion about Jesus, but it is so largely one which men experience secondhand."

    ·       "The foolish and the dead never change their opinion." - James Russell Lowell

    ·       “The Earth is a fine place and worth fighting for.” — Ernest Hemingway

    ·       "The entire organization of high spirits, angelic hosts, and midway fellows is enthusiastically devoted to the furtherance of the Paradise plan for the progressive ascension and perfection attainment of evolutionary mortals."

    ·       The soul that is within me no man can degrade. - Frederick Douglass

    ·       "It is the business and duty of society to provide the child of nature with a fair and peaceful opportunity to pursue self-maintenance, participate in self-perpetuation, while at the same time enjoying some measure of self-gratification, the sum of all three constituting human happiness."

    ·       I knew that if I cut a tree, my arm would bleed. - Alice Walker

    ·       "Candidates for eternal life are practitioners of an invigorating and constructive technique for meeting all of the vicissitudes and harassments of mortal living. Every day a true believer lives, he finds it easier to do the right thing."

    ·       I no longer want to repeat the same mistakes over and over again. Today I take the time to slow down and examine the source of my difficulties so that I can move on a path with freedom. - Ruth Fishel
