always stands still.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson
If you want to understand the teachings of Buddha, Krishna, Jesus or any great
philosopher, you will have to learn to differentiate and dissect their sayings

Without distinguishing the two, you will invariably end up misunderstanding their
sayings.
-Deep Trivedi
It does not require many words to speak the truth.
-Chief Joseph
Half a truth is often a great lie.
-Benjamin Franklin
