Know the Truth

Image
Those who know the truth are not equal to those who love it. To know what you know and what you do not know, that is true knowledge. The superior man thinks always of virtue; the common man thinks of comfort. The man who asks a question is a fool for a minute, the man who does not ask is a fool for life.                                               Confucius

Blessing or Curse

Blessing or Curse  Whatever the case may be I was blessed with that same curse. “I was drawn to horses as if they were magnets. It was in my blood. I must have inherited from my grandfather a genetic proclivity toward the equine species.  Perhaps there's a quirk in the DNA that makes horse people different from everyone else, that instantly divides humanity into those who love horses and the others,  who simply don't know.”  Allan J. Hamilton   Zen Mind, Zen Horse: The Science and Spirituality of Working with Horses

The Educational Philosophy of Rudolf Steiner

Image
Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility—these three forces are the very nerve of education.                                           Rudolf Steiner                      Waldorf Education - Anthroposophy

These Enemies of Yours

Image
Tell me how you wish me to deal with these enemies of yours, for they are no able to camp, and I will deliver them in your hands in whatever manner you wish.                  John Hawkwood (1323–1394)

Confucius Quotes

Image
When a person should be spoken with, and you don’t speak with them, you lose them. When a person shouldn’t be spoken with and you speak to them, you waste your breath. The wise do not lose people, nor do they waste their breath. Learn advidly. Question it repeatedly. Analyze it carefully. Then put what you have learned into practice intelligently. Confucius
