“Something very beautiful happens to people when their world has fallen apart: a humility, a nobility, a higher intelligence emerges at just the point when our knees hit the floor. Perhaps, in a way, that's where humanity is now: about to discover we're not as smart as we thought we were, will be forced by life to surrender our attacks and defenses which avail us of nothing, and finally break through into the collective beauty of who we really are.” PeopleWorldWayHappensBeautifulHumanityBreakHumilityHigherSmartIntelligenceDefenseSurrenderKneesFallenCollectivesFinding YourselfFalling ApartNobilityBreak ThroughVery BeautifulLecturer Author:Marianne Williamson
“I think [aging] has nothing to recommend it. You don't gain any wisdom as the years go by. You fall apart, is what happens. People try and put a nice varnish on it, and say, well, you mellow. You come to understand life and accept things. But you'd trade all of that for being 35 again.” PeopleThinkingTryingYearsWellsHappensAgeFallAcceptingNiceGainsTradeAgingOld AgeFalling ApartMellow Author:Woody Allen
