NUGGETS OF WISDOM - 582

 

  • ·       "He never ceased to warn his disciples against the evil practice of retaliation; he made no allowance for revenge, the idea of getting even. He deplored the holding of grudges."

    ·       Irrigators channel waters; fletchers straighten arrows; carpenters bend wood; the wise master themselves. - Buddha

    ·       "For here we are not afraid to follow wherever it may lead, or to tolerate error so long as reason is free to combat it." - Thomas Jefferson

    ·       "Always, as you ascend inward in the scale of life, will you retain the ability to recognize and fraternize with the fellow beings of your previous and lower levels of experience."

     

    ·       Focus is a matter of deciding what things you’re not going to do. - John Carmack

     

    ·       What would life be like if you were always the first to extend compassion and understanding, to offer the "olive branch" of peace, and to give others the benefit of the doubt?

     

    ·       "It is not that Urantia needed a Creator Son to set its tangled affairs in order; it is rather that the evil and sin on Urantia afforded the Creator Son a more striking background against which to reveal the matchless love, mercy, and patience of the Paradise Father."
