Just a couple of thoughts before I go to Bed

"Only in an open space where we're not all caught up in our own version of reality can we see and hear and feel who others really are, which allows us to be with them and communicate with them properly." -- Pema Chodron

"The object behind every true work of art is the attainment of a state of being." -- Robert Henri

"In fact, taking tamales to the church potluck or reading in the classroom - all those little acts are philanthropic. Philanthropy means love of humankind." --Santamaría

"Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony." -- Mahatma Gandhi

"The true spirit of conversation consists in building on another man's observation, not overturning it." -- Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton
