Releasing attachment

"Gone to the beyond of becoming,

you let go of in front, let go of behind,

let go of between.

With a heart everywhere let go,

you don't come again to birth & aging."

“For every minute you are angry,

you lose sixty seconds of happiness.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

When you reach for the stars...

"When you reach for the stars, you are reaching

for the farthest thing out there. When you reach

deep into yourself, it is the same thing, but in the

opposite direction. If you reach in both directions,

you will have spanned the universe. "

Vera Nazarian

Failure is not

"Failure is not a disgrace if you

have sincerely done your best."

Napoleon Hill

On wisdom...

“The saddest aspect of life right now 

is that science gathers knowledge 

faster than society gathers wisdom.”

Isaac Asimov

Ignorance, arrogance and wealth

" Ignorance, arrogance and wealth:

the formula for a perfect disaster

for self and others"

Old world saying

A new consciousness

"A new consciousness is developing which 

sees the earth as a single organism and 

recognizes that an organism at war with itself 

is doomed. We are one planet. One of the great 

revelations of the age of space exploration is 

the image of the earth finite and lonely, 

somehow vulnerable, bearing the entire human 

species through the oceans of space and time.”

Carl Sagan
