Quote by Carlo Mahfouz

“To ask the right questions is to not look for an answer. And as such, the right questions to ask are the ones that give us a better understanding. The ones that get us closer to an answer but not the answer. Perfect conditions do not exist in the real world as everything continuously changes, and the context shifts with time, and our bias colors it.”

I feel pity, but the feeling of being disrespected out weights ever emotion in my body. I look to you, as always to rid this from my life. You’ve answered my prayers so many times, and in Jesus name, I thank you. Amen.”

“Why don't you answer me straight out?" Hayt demanded. "You know we have other ways of questioning you. We'll get our answers. . . one way or another." "But I have answered you! Have I not said the myth is real? Am I the wind that carries death in its belly? No! I am words! Such words as the lighting which strikes from the sand in a dark sky. I have said: 'Blow out the lamp! Day is here!' And you keep saying: 'Give me a lamp so I can find the day.”

“To those in need of healing, Who can never quite be healed: May curses be your blessing, And may weakness be your shield. To feel despite the numbness, And to hear the silent sound. To see there still is meaning When no answers can be found. I hope you’ll keep on searching, While you also search no more. For know that sometimes healing Is far different and far purer and far greater than a cure.”
