The soul that is attached to anything, however much good there may be in it, will not arrive at the liberty of Divine union. For whether it be a strong wire rope or a slender and delicate thread that holds the bird, it matters not, if it really holds it fast; for until the cord be broken, the bird cannot fly.
You’re going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it’s always their actions you should judge them by.
If we cannot envision the world we would like to live in, we cannot work towards its creation. If we cannot place ourselves in it in our imagination, we will not believe it is possible.
This deep self-confidence, uncompromising quest for Truth is a lesson for all of us.
