Thoughts to inspire all of us to get off our duffs and make a difference in this world! :)

Antoine De Saint-Exupery

It is only with the heart that one can see rightly: what is essential is invisible to the eye.

Walt Whitman

This is what you shall do: Love the earth and the sun and the animals, despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, stand up for the stupid and crazy, devote your income and labor to others, hate tyrants, argue not concerning God...

St. Augustine

Love God and Do what you will.

Sartre

Things are entirely as they appear to be and behind them ...there is nothing.

Lenny Bruce

Every day people are staying away from church and going back to God.

Dogen

If you cannot find the truth right where you are, where else do you expect to find it?

Kahlil Gibran

Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.

Joseph Conrad

This magnificent butterfly finds a little heap of dirt and sits still on it; but man will never on his heap of mud keep still...

Muhammad

Whoever knows himself knows God.

Theodore Roethke

The self says, I am;
the heart says, I am less;
The spirit says, you are nothing.

Dorothy Day

We cannot love God unless we love each other.

Valentine's Day

It is important to remember that Valentine's Day isn't just to honor romantic love, but to rejoice in the fact that we know how much God loves us - NO MATTER WHAT we do or who we are, and how we can share that same love with all those we meet.

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
- Jesus Christ

Mother Teresa

"I want you to be concerned about your next door neighbor. Do you know your next door neighbor?"
