Thomas Merton
“The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to... fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.”
Thomas Merton

Hippocrates
“All disease begins in the gut.”
Hippocrates

John Steinbeck
“There ain't no sin and there ain't no virtue. There's just stuff people do.”
John Steinbeck, The Grapes of Wrath

Jean-Yves Leloup
“It [speaking with words that bring about harmony] consists of speaking of what is good about people, instead of what is wrong with them. For some people this is an almost impossible exercise, for they have become totally habituated to speaking critically. We all seem to have a special talent for finding critical things to say about the world, about others, and about ourselves! (117)”
Jean-Yves Leloup, Compassion and Meditation: The Spiritual Dynamic between Buddhism and Christianity

John Steinbeck
“They had not grown up in the paradoxes of industry. Their senses were still sharp to the ridiculousness of the industrial life.”
John Steinbeck, The Grapes of Wrath
