A bubble of air in the blood, a drop of water
in the brain, and a man is out of gear, his machine falls to pieces, his
thought vanishes, the world disappears from him like a dream at morning. On
what a spider thread is hung our individual existence! - Hendri-Frederic Amiel
Human life when rightly lived is simple ...
but it is not rightly lived while it is bound to a complexity of lusts,
desires, and wants – these are not the real life but the burning fever and
painful disease which originate in an unenlightened condition of mind. - James Allen
I accept that life is uncertain – that the
goal is not to become more certain about anything but to relax more into the
mystery of not knowing what will come next. And then, miracle of miracles, out
there in the deep and uncertain water, I come into a peaceful knowing – a
faithful wisdom that surpasses control and certainty. - Elizabeth Lesser
