“I've never met anyone with a perfect upbringing. It seems to me that life on planet Earth just doesn't work that way.

“The human venture depends absolutely on this quality of awe and reverence and joy in the Earth and all that lives and grows upon the Earth. As soon as we isolate ourselves from these currents of life and from the profound mood that these engender within us, then our basic life-satisfactions are diminished. None of our machine-made products, none of our computer-based achievements can evoke that total commitment to life.” HumansMadeEarthJoyGrowsQualityGrowing UpProductsDependsAchievementComputerCommitmentMachinesProfoundCurrentsSatisfactionMoodAweReverenceVentureEvoke Book:The Great Work: Our Way into the Future Source: The Great Work: Our Way into the Future

“The mediocre mind has no capacity for understanding. It is stuck somewhere near thirteen years in its mental age, or even below it. The person may be forty, fifty, seventy years old - that does not matter, that is the physical age. He has been growing old, but he has not been growing up. You should note the distinction. Growing old, every animal does. Growing up, only a few human beings manage.” ShouldYearsMindHumansMayPersonsDoeHas BeensMatterMotivationalAgeUnderstandingHuman BeingsAnimalGrowing UpGrowingCapacityNotesStuckManageFiftyDistinctionFortyMediocreSeventiesGrowing OldThirteenMediocre Minds Author:Rajneesh
“One must not consider a language as a product dead, and formed but once; it is an animate being, and ever creative. Human thought elaborates itself with the progress of intelligence; and of this thought language is a manifestation. An idiom cannot therefore remain stationary; it walks, it develops, it grows up, it fortifies itself, it becomes old, and it reaches decrepitude.” HumansLanguageGrowsWalksCreativeGrowing UpProgressProductsManifestationHuman ThoughtIdiomStationary Author:Wilhelm von Humboldt
