“Gandhi has sound economic and cultural reasons for encouraging the revival of cottage industries, but he does not counsel a fanatical repudiation of all modern progress. Machinery, trains, automobiles, the telegraph have played important parts in his own colossal life! Fifty years of public service, in prison and out, wrestling daily with practical details and harsh realities in the political world, have only increased his balance, open-mindedness, sanity, and humorous appreciation of the quaint human spectacle.” WorldYearsHumansDoeImportantReasonRealityPoliticalSoundProgressEconomicModernIndustryBalanceHumorousPrisonTrainDetailsAppreciationPracticalsFiftyWrestlingSanityHarshMachineryRevivalAutomobilePublic ServiceOpen MindednessCottagesColossalQuaintTelegraphHarsh Reality Author:Paramahansa Yogananda

“Without the church it's like having a boat without the rudder. You think you can do it on your own and this may sound pedestrian or trite but I'll equate it to this: all my life I've been involved with exercise but no matter how much - and I know a great deal about the body - you need help. You need a trainer. You need to go to a gym and you need to have the expertise and the guidance of someone else. You cannot train yourself. I feel the same way about Christianity and what the church is. The church is the gym of the soul.” ThinkingKnowsWayNeedsFeelsMaySoulMatterHelpingBodySoundCan DoChurchDealsChristianityInvolvedExerciseTrainBoatGuidanceGymYou Can Do ItExpertiseTrainersNeed HelpPedestriansRudders Author:Sylvester Stallone
“The time I like listening to music most on headphones is, I have a game I play with my brother, he's a musician as well.And he sends me MIDI files of keyboard pieces. So, these are pieces where I just get a MIDI file; I don't know what instrument he was playing them on; I know nothing about his section of the sound of the piece, and then when I'm sitting on trains I do a lot of train travel I turn them into pieces of music. And I love to do that; it's my favorite hobby.” KnowsWellsPlayTurnsGamesSoundPiecesBrotherListeningMusicianSittingInstrumentsTrainMy FavoriteMy BrotherHobbiesSectionsListening To MusicFilesKeyboardsHeadphonesMidiFavorite Hobby Author:Brian Eno
