In the spiritual path, joy and suffering follow one another like two feet, and you come to a point of not minding which 'foot' is on the ground. You realize, on the contrary, that it is extremely uncomfortable hopping all the time on the joy foot.

John G. Bennett

British Author, Scientist and Mathematician

It is positive to want to go first, provided the intention is to pave the way for others, make their path more easy, help them, or show the way. Competition is negative when we wish to defeat others, to bring them down in order to lift ourselves up.

Dalai Lama

Quotes  Books     

An 'enemy' is someone that God puts in our path that is most in need of our love; not retaliation or retribution or harm or insult.

There are many things in my medicine bundle.
There are many feathers in my headdress.
There is great wisdom in my soul.
There is great strength in my body.
There is great love in my heart.
With these, I will traverse all that lies on the path ahead.

Christine Schaefer

Friend and Fellow Traveller

Rest assured that, generally speaking, others are acting in exactly the same manner that you would under exactly the same circumstances. Hence, be kind, understanding, empathetic, compassionate, and loving.

Kindness Quotes  Mr. Fenchuk's Books     

If there are a hundred steps
In thy path to success
And ye have not reached it
In ninety-nine of them
Do not conclude
That the journey is a failure.
Press on and up...
the prizes are generally at the end of an effort,
not at its beginning...
and not to go on
is to miss them.
Be valiant... have faith in yourself.
Success belongs to him
who dares to win it.

George S. Forest

Strive to achieve whatever you think you cannot. For it is on the path toward your impossible dream that you will find what you truly seek.

Taro's Quotes  Taro's Books     

It is important to expect nothing,
To take every experience,
Including the negative ones,
As merely steps on the path,
And to proceed.

Ram Dass

American Author and Spiritual Teacher

Quotes  Books     

Whatever else you do or forbear,
impose upon yourself the task of happiness;
and now and then abandon yourself
to the joy of laughter.

And however much you condemn the evil in the world,
remember that the world is not all evil;
that somewhere children are at play,
as you yourself in the old days;
that women still find joy in the stalwart hearts of men;

And that men, treading with restless feet their many paths,
may yet find refuge from the storms of the world
in the cheerful house of love.

Max Ehrmann, 1872-1945
American Lawyer, Philosopher, Poet

Follow the path of the unsafe, independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the dangers of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of 'crackpot' than the stigma of conformity. And on issues that seem important to you, stand up and be counted at any cost.

Thomas J. Watson
