wisdom

His emotions are not for men, they are for his vision.

In the men I love heroes, in the work I love heroism

A good leader will seek the wisdom of others. After all, no man is an island!

No man is ordinary, only their performances are ordinary.

God doesn__ give us pain to make us strong. He gives us strength to look inside ourselves and realize we are not innocent victims. When you learn humility, you are no longer a victim because a humble man is not self-absorbed. He seeks to understand why people are hurting him and takes responsibility for his part in their grief. Humility doesn__ dwell with anger or pride, and neither does God.

What is wisdom? It is the result of multiple paradigms brought to their intellectual furthest reaches and balanced and merged together. The fundamentalist, the person who only sees life through a single lens, can never hope for wisdom.

Even in peace there is war.

The world is very different now. For man holds in his mortal hands the power to abolish all forms of human poverty and all forms of human life.

Sometimes you come to realize you understand something but you can__ explain it to anyone, not even yourself. This is perhaps the most sacred kind of understanding.

The little Otak was hiding in the rafters of the house, as it did when strangers entered. There it stayed while the rain beat on the walls and the fire sank down and the night wearing slowly along left the old woman nodding by the hearthpit. Then the otak crept down and came to Ged where he lay stretched stiff and still upon the bed. It began to lick his hands and wrists, long and patiently, with its dry leaf-brown tongue. Crouching beside his head it licked his temple, his scarred cheek, and softly his closed eyes. And very slowly under that soft touch Ged roused. He woke, not knowing where he had been or where he was or what was the faint grey light in the air about him, which was the light of dawn coming to the world. Then the otak curled up near his shoulder as usual, and went to sleep.Later, when Ged thought back upon that night, he knew that had none touched him when he lay thus spirit-lost, had none called him back in some way, he might have been lost for good. It was only the dumb instinctive wisdom of the beast who licks his hurt companion to comfort him, and yet in that wisdom Ged saw something akin to his own power, something that went as deep as wizardry. From that time forth he believed that the wise man is one who never sets himself apart from other living things, whether they have speech or not, and in later years he strove to learn what can be learned, in silence, from the eyes of animals, the flight of birds, the great slow gestures of trees

When a man tells you he knows the exact truth about anything, you are safe in inferring he is an inexact man.

Se aburren quienes se pasan la vida esperando que algo los estimule desde fuera...

cuando se es joven hay que ser un cero a la izquierda, pues no existe nada más perjudicial que destacar pronto, prematuramente, en cualquier cosa.

Sin, blasphemy, heresy _ all these are primitive ideas created by primitive creatures, unworthy of the title __uman_.

First it was "The Silent Generation", then "Generation Boomers", then "Generation X", then "Generation Y" and as last "Generation Z".

Please don't be overly sober with your precious wings, it's your addiction to freedom that makes me think that i too can defy gravity.

You have to learn where your weaknesses end and your strengths starts or you will spend your life focusing on all that falls apart.

Shallow intellect is worse than ignorance. Ignorance can be treated with knowledge, but shallow intellect, that is illusion of knowledge, is untreatable and quite dangerous to the progress and wellbeing of humanity.
