Quotations
Self - Discovery
You necessarily have to be lost, before you’re found.
-T. Scott McLeod
"All That Is Unspoken"
If you have known yourself, you have known everything else. Know that, by knowing which, you will know everything else. The Bible says, “Seek that kingdom within you.” Once you have found that, then everything else will be automatically added unto you; you don’t have to go looking for things outside; they will all come to you.
-Satchidananda Saraswati "Swami Satchidananda"
Your distress about life might mean you have been living for the wrong reason, not that you have no reason for living.
-Tom O'connor
The simplest questions are the most profound. Where were you born? Where is your home? Where are you going? What are you doing? Think about these once in a while and watch your answers change.
-Richard Bach
Never mind searching for who you are. Search for the person you aspire to be.
-Robert Brault
A single event can awaken within us a stranger totally unknown to us. To live is to be slowly born.
-Antoine De Saint Exupéry
"Flight to Arras"
Better to start up a thousand wrong roads than to spend your life going nowhere because you know the way.
-Robert Brault
But there are other things which a man is afraid to tell even to himself, and every decent man has a number of such things stored away in his mind.
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
"Notes from the Underground"
A person often meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it.
-Jean De La Fontaine
