Quote by Dan Desmarques

“Consciousness is a ripple of reverberations that initiate in the heart and resonate like echoes in the mind. Fear not then that which you speak, but be aware of how it affects others, for the effects of it will return multiplied unto you; and always let that which is good be known, so that you can enjoy the multiplied effects of it too, or learn to discern both. Because those who think too much before they speak have not yet realized how fear restrains them from being conscious of their own potential.”

“Contrary to public opinion, writers are not crazy. It takes a very sharp thinking, an extremely high ability for reasoning, and a very clear mind to write easily, quickly and with value. Whoever prides himself for preparing a short book for more than a year, shouldn’t be proud of his achievements, for such attitude pollutes the truth in art with a lie, and deceives the population into following the wrong leaders and reality changers.”

“Cyclic karma is not a metaphysical approach to the meaning of life because you can see it in history books. The world always attracts that which scares it the most, as if ignorance was not an excuse to avoid responsibility. And the world of today, is as silent about that which has been vilified, as in the case of the Muslims and other minorities, as it once was about the German Jews and other persecuted groups. But likewise and as before, by the same spiritual law, when you ignore that which you don't identify yourself with, you are dragged into a war you didn't choose to have.”

“Don’t feel shame because of your current life or past failures. Know that nobody is perfect and you can overcome your limitations with experience and constant learning. Focus in being a better person every day, as improvements can change your life for better, but focusing on shame and failures will only lead you towards apologizing yourself. Lazy and irresponsible people often justify their behavior with their past, while responsible and successful people strive to be better and proud of themselves.”

“She went to the window. A fine sheen of sugary frost covered everything in sight, and white smoke rose from chimneys in the valley below the resort town. The window opened to a rush of sharp early November air that would have the town in a flurry of activity, anticipating the tourists the colder weather always brought to the high mountains of North Carolina. She stuck her head out and took a deep breath. If she could eat the cold air, she would. She thought cold snaps were like cookies, like gingersnaps. In her mind they were made with white chocolate chunks and had a cool, brittle vanilla frosting. They melted like snow in her mouth, turning creamy and warm.”

“There was no water at my grandfather’s when I was a kid and would go for it with two zinc buckets. Down the path, past the cow by the foundation where the fine people’s house was before they arranged to have it burned down. To the neighbor’s cool well. Would come back with pails too heavy, so my mouth pulled out of shape. I see myself, but from the outside. I keep trying to feel who I was, and cannot. Hear clearly the sound the bucket made hitting the sides of the stone well going down, but never the sound of me.”
