"Reading and
sauntering and lounging and dozing, which I call thinking, is my
supreme happiness."
"The
truth springs from arguments among friends."
"Beauty is no quality in things
themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and
each mind perceives a different beauty."
"The life of man is of no greater
importance to the universe than that of an oyster."
"He is happy whose circumstances
suit his temper but he is more excellent who can suit his temper to
any circumstances."
~David Hume
The only way you’re going to face
your wild beasts and your shadows is by failure and rejection, by
people not loving you, by having to learn how to love [your parents
and siblings,] your wife and your children and those who hurt
you—the enemies—those who make you aware of your own incapacity
to love.
~Fr. Richard Rohr
