Never too late to learn some embarrassingly basic, stupidly obvious things about oneself.


Alain de Botton

At thirty a man suspects himself a fool; Knows it at forty, and reforms his plan; At fifty chides his infamous delay, Pushes his prudent purpose to resolve; In all the magnanimity of thought Resolves; and re-resolves; then dies the same.


Edward Young

The thing about traveling alone, is that you run into your insecurities and fears times ten the normal! You run into all the good things and all the bad things about yourself on a daily basis, and are allowed the opportunity to truly become your own friend. Traveling alone is a learning process; some people travel for leisure, I travel to run into myself!


C. JoyBell C.

One might have said that reason made him flee from reason.


André Maurois


#knowledge #reason #age

Each day is an adventure in discovering the meaning of life. It is each little thing that you do that day - whether it be spending time with your friends, running in a cross-country meet or just simply staring at the crashing ocean- that holds the key to discovering the meaning of life. I would rather be out enjoying these things than pondering them. We may never really discover the meaning of life, but the knowledge we gain in our quest to discover it is truly more valuable.


Jack Canfield

They live by an irrational morality. The rational man doesn't hate it when he is proven wrong; he is actually grateful, since his knowledge has been enriched. The people who follow an irrational morality can only maintain their irrational value system by ignoring reality. When you point this out to them they get very, very defensive, because your logic threatens to destroy their distorted system of ethics. Reason becomes their enemy, and they hate it with a passion." -Unknown

There is no one way to salvation, whatever the manner in which a man may proceed. All forms and variations are governed by the eternal intelligence of the Universe that enables a man to approach perfection. It may be in the arts of music and painting or it may be in commerce, law, or medicine. It may be in the study of war or the study of peace. Each is as important as any other. Spiritual enlightenment through religious meditation such as Zen or in any other way is as viable and functional as any "Way."... A person should study as they see fit.


Miyamoto Musashi

You have a lot to learn, young man. Philosophy. Theology. Literature. Poetry. Drama. History. Archeology. Anthropology. Mythology. Music. These are your tools as much as brush and pigment. You cannot be an artist until you are civilized. You cannot be civilized until you learn. To be civilized is to know where you belong in the continuum of our art and your world. To surmount the past, you must know the past.


John Logan

An aphorism ought to be entirely isolated from the surrounding world like a little work of art and complete in itself like a hedgehog.


Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
