You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers. You can tell whether a man is wise by his questions.
As you are externally aware, so also you can be inwardly aware of your thoughts and feelings, of your motives and urges, of your prejudices, envies, greed and pride…This outward and inward awareness is a unitary process which brings about a total integration of human understanding.
There is a sacred horror about everything grand. It is easy to admire mediocrity and hills; but whatever is too lofty, a genius as well as a mountain, an assembly as well as a masterpiece, seen too near, is appalling.
Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.
Yesterday I was clever that is why I wanted to change the world. Today I am wise that is why I am changing myself.
