“Take the level of dedication that anyone had to get to the top in any field, and apply it to self-discovery. Except that when you get to the top of anything else, it washes away. You will die. The only thing that stays with you forever is your awareness.” InspirationalSelfDiesLevelsForeverAwarenessFieldsBuddhismDiscoverySelf DiscoveryDedication Author:Frederick Lenz
“Human life is but of brief duration. 'All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field. The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God shall stand forever' (Isa. 40:6, 8). Let us hold fast to the commandment that abides, and despise the unreality that passes away.” HumansChristianLife IsForeverFieldsFlowerFleshHuman LifeGrassOrthodoxDespiseFadesCommandmentsOrthodox ChristianPassing AwayDurationHold FastUnreality Author:Saint Basil
“The most beautiful conception of immortality of which I know, and certainly one that by contrast shows the utter vulgarity of Christian ideas, is set forth in Pindar's second Olympian: after three or six lives in which a man has lived with strict justice and perfect integrity, he passes beyond the tower of Cronus to the fair realm that cannot be reached by land or sea, where gentle breezes from a placid ocean blow forever on the fields of asphodel. For a description, see Pindar.

“If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field That is forever England.

“What a pity it is that our Congress had not known this discovery, and that Alexander Hamilton’s projects of raising an army of fifty thousand Men, ten thousand of them to be Cavalry and his projects of sedition Laws and Alien Laws and of new taxes to support his army, all arose from a superabundance of secretions which he could not find whores enough to draw off! and that the same vapours produced his Lyes and Slanders by which he totally destroyed his party forever and finally lost his Life in the field of Honor.” MenEnoughLawLostPartyKnownSupportForeverFieldsHonorThousandTenTaxesProjectsDrawsDiscoveryArmyCongressPityDestroyedAliensFiftySlanderHamiltonCavalryVapour Book:Old Family Letters: Copied from the Originals for Alexander Biddle...

“We as young men need just one of our peers to stand up and trust his God completely and without reserve. We need just one who will start climbing the rugged mountain cliffs in the direction of his King. We need just one to hear the call of the wild, to charge the fields of Bannockburn and fight for something that really matters. I appeal to you, as a young man, to consider that throughout history, it has often been when one young man stood up to be counted that the course of a nation was forever altered.” MenNeedsMatterYoungFightingCoursesNationsForeverFieldsKingsMountainAppealsYoung ManJust OneClimbingReservesPeersCliffsAlteredStood UpRugged Author:Eric Ludy
“John [Lennon] as a singer - the way he sings on "Twist and Shout" and the way he sings on "Strawberry Fields Forever" - is a very odd voice, in the sense that it seems to be celebrating but almost mourning at the same time. There's a quality of mourning to his voice, which is very enigmatic.” WaySeemsVoiceQualityForeverFieldsSingersCelebrateOddMourningTwistsStrawberriesLennonEnigmatic Author:Alasdair MacLean
