Rabindranath Tagore ...


I have spent my days stringing and unstringing my instrument ... 
While the song I came to sing remains unsung ...

John Krakauer ...


You do not need me or anyone else around to bring this new kind of light in your life ... 
All you have to do is reach for it ... 
The only person you are fighting is yourself ... 
And your stubbornness to engage in new circumstances ...

Nisargadatta Maharaj ...


When I look within, and see that I AM nothing ... 
This is wisdom... 

When I look out, and see that I AM everything ... 
This is love ... 

My life is a dance between the two ...




Rumi ...


Freedom is worth more than all the lands on earth ... 
To be one with the truth for just a moment ... 
Is worth more than the world and life itself ...


Hafiz ...


Light will someday split you open ... 
Even if your life is now a cave ...



Buddha ...


Every morning we are born again ... 
What we do today is what matters most ...


  

John O’Donohue ...


Once the soul awakens, the search begins and you can never go back ... 

From then on, you are inflamed with a special longing that will never again let you linger in the lowlands of complacency and partial fulfillment ... 

The eternal makes you urgent ... 

You are loath to let compromise or the threat of danger hold you back from striving toward the summit of fulfillment ...
