“من بعض بعض أسباب التباعد الإنساني بين البشر هو أننا نبدد في بعض الأحيان أوقاتاً ثمينة في الكبرياء وانتظار الخطوة الأولي من الطرف الآخر للاقتراب منا, بدلاً من أن نخطو نحن هذه الخطوة تجاهه ونقرب المسافات بيننا”
عبدالوهاب مطاوع

Lauren Oliver
“You look beautiful.” Lindsay giggles, checks Elody out in the rearview. “There are some bagels under your butt, beautiful.” “Mmm, butt bagels.” Elody reaches into the bag and pulls out a bagel, half squashed, then makes a big deal of taking an enormous bite out of it. “Tastes like Victoria’s Secret.” “Tastes like thong floss,” I say. “Tastes like crack,” Lindsay says. “Tastes like fart,” Elody says, and Lindsay spits coffee on the dashboard, and I start laughing and can’t stop, and all the way to school we’re thinking of flavors for butt bagels, and I’m thinking that this—my life, my friends—might be weird or screwy or imperfect or damaged or whatever, but it’s never seemed better to me.”
Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall

“A principle is the expression of perfection. Imperfect beings like us cannot practice perfection. I shall allow for error in judgment by seeking counsel from all sources of knowledge. Failing is critical for self-growth because it causes a principled person to think. A person’s greatest failures are their portals to discovery. The mind is a fire that a person must kindle; a person must seek constant development in order to stave off intellectual, spiritual, and moral morbidity. A person cannot apply any principle to guide human behavior without testing its concept against present realities or it will result in absurdities.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“Imperfect. Beautiful. The most extraordinary thought of all.”
Grace Curley, The Light that Binds Us

Frithjof Schuon
“Une erreur pernicieuse que nous devons signaler ici, et qui semble être un axiome pour les faux gourous d’Orient et d’Occident, est ce que nous pourrions désigner par le terme de «réalisationnisme» : on prétend que seule la « réalisation » importe et que la « théorie » n’est rien, comme si l’homme n’était pas un être pensant, et comme s’il pouvait entreprendre quoi que ce soit sans savoir où poser son pied. Les faux maîtres parlent volontiers du «développement d’énergies latentes» ; or on peut aller en enfer avec tous les développements et toutes les énergies qu’on voudra ; mieux vaut en tout cas mourir avec une bonne théorie qu’avec une fausse « réalisation ».”
Frithjof Schuon, The Play of Masks
