Why do you want a new truth when you do not practice what you already know? Far better to read a few books and make them your own than to read many books quickly and superficially.
We deny the parts of ourselves that we deem unacceptable rather than accepting the fact that we're all less than perfect.
Even though we often mess up, most of us are doing the best that we know how with the circumstances that surround us.
Then there are the simple things. The way she fits against my side when we’re sitting together. How she can silence my addled thoughts with one look. The sound of my name from her lips. The way she can make a moment, any moment, a thousands times b...
People think the Bible is too complicated for the average person to understand. People tend to be wrong. It's too complicated for the unsaved person, yes, it's foolishness to him. But for those who are in Christ, it's a magnificent journey of simplic...
I'm a simple, simple man.
I'm an Earth ecstatic, and my creed is simple: All life is sacred, life loves life, and we are capable of improving our behavior toward one another. As basic as that is, for me it's also tonic and deeply spiritual, glorifying the smallest life-form a...
Simplicity is complex. It's never simple to keep things simple. Simple solutions require the most advanced thinking.
