Henry Van Dyke(1852-1933)

Time is
Too Slow for those who Wait,
Too Swift for those who Fear,
Too Long for those who Grieve,
Too Short for those who Rejoice,
But for those who Love,
Time is not.

~Peter Blue Cloud, Turtle Clan Mohawk Indian (1933-present)

The winds are dark passages among the stars,
leading to whiling void pockets
encircled by seeds of thought,
life force of the Creation.

Buddha(563BCE-483BCE)


The thought manifests as the word;
The word manifests as the deed;
The deed develops into habit;
And habit hardens into character.
So watch the thought and its ways with care,
And let it spring from love
Born out of concern for all beings.

Dean Ornish, MD(1953- )

Love and Intimacy are the root
of what makes us sick and what makes us well,
what causes sadness and what brings happiness,
what makes us suffer and what leads to healing...

George Washington Carver(1864-1943)

How far you go in life depends on
your being tender with the young,
compassionate with the aged,
sympathetic with the striving, and
tolerant with the weak and the strong,
because someday in your life you
will have been all of these things.

Kahlil Gibran(1883-1931)

And could you keep your heart in wonder at the
daily miracles of life, your pain would not seem less
wondrous than your joy.
