NUGGETS OF WISDOM - 623

 

  • ·       "It is only natural that mortal man should be harassed by feelings of insecurity as he views himself inextricably bound to nature while he possesses spiritual powers wholly transcendent to all things temporal and finite. Only religious confidence — living faith — can sustain man amid such difficult and perplexing problems."

    ·       You have to be willing to look like an idiot in the short term to look like a genius in the long term. - Shane Parrish

    ·       I can go through anything a day at a time, a moment at a time with the faith and the knowledge that my Higher Power is guiding me to peace and security. - Ruth Fishel

    ·       There is no winter harsh enough to withhold the promise of spring. - Karen Kaiser Clarke

    ·       "On the evolutionary worlds, selfhood is material; it is a thing in the universe and as such is subject to the laws of material existence. It is a fact in time and is responsive to the vicissitudes thereof. Survival decisions must here be formulated."

    ·       The cleverest of all, in my opinion, is the man who calls himself a fool at least once a month. - Fyodor Dostoevsky

    ·       Wisdom manifests-sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly-from repeatedly working with life on its own terms.

    ·       "Religion is the efficient scourge of evolution which ruthlessly drives indolent and suffering humanity from its natural state of intellectual inertia forward and upward to the higher levels of reason and wisdom."

    ·       Develop enough courage so that you can stand up for yourself and then stand up for somebody else. - Maya Angelou
