“All revealed truths derive from the same divine source and are to be believed with the same faith, yet some of them are more important for giving direct expression to the heart of the Gospel.

“The course of a great statesman resembles that of navigable rivers, avoiding immovable obstacles with noble bends of concession, seeking the broad levels of opinion on which men soonest settle and longest dwell, following and marking the almost imperceptible slopes of national tendency, yet always aiming at direct advances, always recruited from sources nearer heaven, and sometimes bursting open paths of progress and fruitful human commerce through what seem the eternal barriers of both.” MenHumansSometimesSeemsCoursesHeavenLevelsOpinionPathProgressSourceEternalRiversDirectSeekingFollowingObstaclesNobleTendenciesSettlingBarriersBroadsCommerceAvoidingStatesmenSlopesBurstingConcessions Book:My Study Windows Source: My Study Windows

“The child knows only that he engages in play because it is enjoyable. He isn't aware of his need to play--a need which has its source in the pressure of unsolved problems. Nor does he know that his pleasure in playing comes from a deep sense of well-being that is the direct result of feeling in control of things, in contrast to the rest of his life, which is managed by his parents or other adults.” KnowsNeedsWellsChildrenDoePlayFeelingsProblemParentPleasureResultsSourceAdultsDirectPressureWell BeingContrastEnjoyableUnsolved Problems Author:Bruno Bettelheim

“Wal-Mart has become the whipping boy for political demagogues, unions and anti-traders. I suggest that they have the wrong target....

“Knowledge about God is of two kinds, direct and indirect. Indirectly we can read scriptures, listen to sermons, consult authorities, and from these sources build a reasonable case that God exists. But such a God transmits no love to Earth. Therefore nothing substitutes for gyana, which is direct knowledge of the divine. Instead of having thoughts about God, you share God's own thoughts. Her thoughts can only be about Herself.” KindTwoEarthCasesShareDivineSourceAuthorityDirectScriptureReasonableSubstitutesSermonsNo LoveTransmitGod ExistsIndirectDirect And Indirect Author:Deepak Chopra
“Merely to resist evil with evil by hating those who hate us and seeking to destroy them, is actually no resistance at all. It is active and purposeful collaboration in evil that brings the Christian into direct and intimate contact with the same source of evil and hatred which inspires the acts of his enemy. It leads in practice to a denial of Christ and to the service of hatred rather than love.” WisdomChristianHateEvilChristEnemyPracticeInspireSourceDirectHatredSeekingActiveResistanceContactDenialIntimateCollaborationLead In Author:Thomas Merton
