The most crucial use of knowledge and education is to understand the importance of developing a good heart.

Education can’t focus only on developing our wonderful brain. We also need warm-heartedness. This is my view.

Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others is the ultimate source of success in life.

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.

Being neededdoes not entail selfish pride or unhealthy attachment to the worldly esteem of others. Rather, it consists of a natural human hunger to serve our fellow men and women.

Love is the absence of judgment.

We all die unhealed

If it turns out that there is a God, I don’t think that he’s evil. But the worst that you can say about him is that basically he’s an underachiever.

Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It’s them twisting it that ruins it for me.

If you are unable to find the truth right where you are, where else do you expect to find it?

Let go over a cliff, die completely, and then come back to life – after that you cannot be deceived.

To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.

There is no such thing as a moral or an immoral book. Books are well written or badly written.

When you get there, there isn’t any there there.

A mind committed to compassion is like an overflowing reservoir – a constant source of energy, determination and kindness.

Let us be grateful to Adam, our benefactor. He cut us out of the blessing of idleness and won for us the curse of labor.

Christ and The Church: If he were to apply for a divorce on the grounds of cruelty, adultery and desertion, he would probably get one.

Right now, it’s like this.

Only when you can be extremely pliable and soft can you be extremely hard and strong.

It is by the goodness of God that in our country we have those three unspeakably precious things: freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the prudence never to practice either of them.

God is a loving god.
