Quotes of the Day

The word "Philosophy" is derived from the Ancient Greek - philosophía (compounded from phílos: friend, or lover and sophía: wisdom). To quote from WikiPedia, "Philosophy is the discipline concerned with the questions of what is the right way to live (ethics), what sorts of things ultimately exist and what are their essential natures (metaphysics), what is to count as genuine knowledge (epistemology), and what are the correct principles of reasoning (logic).

Quotes of the Day

Getting to know someone is not a task--it’s an art.

-Pierce LeBlanc
"You never enjoy the world aright, till the Sea itself floweth in your veins, till you are clothed with the heavens and crowned with the stars, and perceive yourself to be the sole heir of the whole world." anonymous
I trust that everything happens for a reason, even when we're not wise enough to see it.

--Oprah Winfrey
The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent tolerance; to a friend your heart; to your child a good example; to a father deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself respect; and to all men charity. ~ Frances Balfour
I'm convinced that at the end of this age God's heroes will be men, women, boys, and girls who no one on earth remembers. Most will be anonymous people who did nothing outstanding in their lives. Except pray.

- Melanie Hemry, A Healing Touch: The Power of Prayer
What is life? It is the flash of a firefly in the night. It is the breath of a buffalo in the wintertime. It is the little shadow which runs across the grass and loses itself in the sunset...

Love and magic have a great deal in common. They enrich the soul, delight the heart. And they both take practice.

The best thing to give to your enemy is freedom!
Freedom from the bin you have locked him or her in. The one labelled <ENEMY>
Like a scared bird freed unexpectedly, he will flitter and flutter; even attack
Eventually though, after he flees and is gone ...
You will miss him! And that would be the proof that you too are FREE!

Beautiful Quotes Torbi. Getting to know someone is not a task, it's an art.

"You never enjoy the world aright, till the Sea itself floweth in your veins, till you are clothed with the heavens and crowned with the stars, and perceive yourself to be the sole heir of the whole world." anonymous

The world is a manifestation of our inner state. The situations we come across, the people we meet, the problems we confront, the life experiences we have, are all projections of what lie within. We create our reality. We are the architects of our destiny. Perceived reality eventually becomes manifested reality. So you become what you think; you find what you perceive.
