A story is the shortest distance between a human being and the truth. - Anthony de Mello

To fight evil with activity is like fighting darkness with one's hands. So what you need is light, not fit.

These things will destroy the human race: politics without principle, progress without compassion, wealth without work, learning without silence, religion without fearlessness, and worship without awareness.

Any time you are with anyone or think of anyone you must say to yourself: I am dying and this person too is dying, attempting the while to experience the truth of the words you are saying. If every one of you agrees to practise this, bitterness will die out, harmony will arise.
