• In my own pursuit of God, I often became preoccupied with ME! It was easy to think that being constantly aware of my faults and weakness was humility. It’s not! If I’m the main subject, talking incessantly about my weaknesses, I have entered into the most subtle form of pride.

• Most do not fully see this truth that life is difficult. Instead they moan more or less incessantly, noisily or subtly, about the enormity of their problems, their burdens, and their difficulties as if life were generally easy, as if life should be easy. They voice their belief, noisily or subtly, that their difficulties represent a unique kind of affliction that should not be and that has somehow been especially visited upon them, or else upon their families, their tribe, their class, their nation, their race or even their species, and not upon others.

• The deeds of love are less questionable than any action of an individual can be, for, it being founded on the rarest mutual respect, the parties incessantly stimulate each other to a loftier and purer life, and the act in which they are associated must be pure and noble indeed, for innocence and purity can have no equal. In this relation we deal with one whom we respect more religiously even than we respect our better selves, and we shall necessarily conduct as in the presence of God. What presence can be more awful to the lover than the presence of his beloved?

• Haz lo que sabes que debes hacer. ¿Por qué habríamos de ir al extranjero, incluso al otro lado del camino, para pedir consejo a un vecino? Hay un vecino más cercano dentro de nosotros que nos dice incesantemente cómo debemos comportarnos. Pero esperamos a que el vecino de fuera nos diga algún camino falso y más fácil.

• ¡Que Dios misericordioso me preserve de una Iglesia cristiana en la que todos son santos! Quiero estar y permanecer en la Iglesia y en el pequeño rebaño de los pusilánimes, los débiles y los enfermos, que sienten y reconocen la miseria de sus pecados, que suspiran y claman a Dios incesantemente pidiendo consuelo y ayuda, que creen en el perdón de los pecados.

• La piedad es el único alivio propio y adecuado del hombre que decae. El que envejece sin esperanzas religiosas, a medida que declina en la imbecilidad, y siente que los dolores y las penas se agolpan incesantemente sobre él, cae en un abismo de miseria sin fondo, en el que cada reflexión debe hundirlo más y más.

• Man's books are but man's alphabet,
  Beyond and on his lessons lie -
  The lessons of the violet,
  The large gold letters of the sky;
  The love of beauty, blossomed soil,
  The large content, the tranquil toil:
  The toil that nature ever taught,
  The patient toil, the constant stir,
  The toil of seas where shores are wrought,
  The toil of Christ, the carpenter;
  The toil of God incessantly
  By palm-set land or frozen sea.

• Marketing is all pervasive. They're getting marketed products they can't afford - can't ever hope to acquire. They believe the only way they're ever going to achieve happiness is the acquisition of these products. Products they can't afford. They see people living that lifestyle, and they have that lifestyle beamed incessantly into their minds through media, which you know I participate in.

• India, she now knew, would not be content staying in the background, was nobody's wallpaper, insisted in interjecting itself into everyone's life, meddling with it, twisting it, molding it beyond recognition. India, she had found out, was a place of political intrigue and economic corruption, a place occupied by real people with their incessantly human needs, desires, ambitions, and aspirations, and not the exotic, spiritual, mysterious entity that was a creation of the Western imagination.

• I stopped writing at the age of 18. I had written incessantly before that. I read, of course, because I was in university, but I wasn't going to write. I wasn't going to do any of those dangerous things. I was going to be a stolid, bourgeois lawyer.

• The violence that has been going on incessantly in our community, getting worse and worse by the day, when we are slaughtering ourselves in unprecedented numbers; filled with self-hatred for each other in a spirit of retaliation and revenge. You kill my dog, I'll kill your cat, as though there are no consequences for this behavior, I have warned us about for the last three, nearly four decades telling our people we're going to have to pay a price for this.

• Man is like a tree. If you stand in front of a tree and watch it incessantly, to see how it grows, and to see how much it has grown, you will see nothing at all. But tend it at all times, prune the runners and keep it free of beetles and worms, and all in good time-it will come into its growth. It is the same with man: all that is necessary is for him to overcome his obstacles, and he will thrive and grow. But it is not right to examine him hour after hour to see how much has already been added to his stature.

• Each one of us pray, day and night, for the downtrodden millions in India, who are held fast by poverty, priest craft, and tyranny - pray day and night for them. I am no meta physician, no philosopher, nay, no saint. But I am poor, I love the poor.... Let these people be your God - think of them, work for them, pray for them incessantly - the Lord will show you the way.

• The good thing about Pittsburgh, it's a good place to be raised... it doesn't tolerate assholes. You're either a good guy or you're a bad guy... When I'm in Los Angeles having these incredibly surreal moments where nobody's saying anything and everybody's talking incessantly, I always have that Pittsburgh voice in my head - shut up, smile, get the job, move on.

• The real thinkers of the world aren't the best dressed. Staying on top of the latest fashions, accessorizing, and presenting oneself is time consuming. It takes a lot of effort, energy and concentration to be incessantly happy and perfectly groomed. You meet somebody like that- ask yourself what they're running from.

• Let us admit, without bitterness, that the individual has his distinct interests and can, without felony, stipulate for those interests and defend them. The present has its pardonable amount of egotism; momentary life has its claims, and cannot be expected to sacrifice itself incessantly to the future. The generation which is in its turn passing over the earth is not forced to abridge its life for the sake of the generations, its equals after all, whose turn shall come later on.

• Given her deafness, the auditory part of the brain, deprived of its usual input, had started to generate a spontaneous activity of its own, and this took the form of musical hallucinations, mostly musical memories from her earlier life. The brain needed to stay incessantly active, and if it was not getting its usual stimulation..., it would create its own stimulation in the form of hallucinations.

• Muchos científicos se han sentido atraídos por el budismo porque consideran que la tradición occidental ha empobrecido la concepción de la cordura humana básica. En Occidente, si uno habla consigo mismo en voz alta todo el día, se le considera loco. Pero hablar consigo mismo en silencio -pensar sin cesar- se considera perfectamente normal.

• La vida consiste en lo salvaje. Lo más vivo es lo más salvaje. Aún no sometido al hombre, su presencia lo refresca. Aquel que avanza incesantemente y nunca descansa de su trabajo, que crece deprisa y exige infinitas cosas de la vida, siempre se encuentra en un país nuevo o salvaje, rodeado de la materia prima de la vida. Trepaba por los tallos postrados de los árboles de los bosques primitivos.

• The other producer of old age is habit: the deathly process of doing the same thing in the same way at the same hour day after day, first from carelessness, then from inclination, at last from cowardice or inertia. Luckily the inconsequent life is not the only alternative; for caprice is as ruinous as routine. Habit is necessary; it is the habit of having habits, of turning a trail into a rut, that must be incessantly fought against if one is to remain alive.

• To prevent wars, people must criticize, in their own country, the abuses that occur in their own country. The role taboos play in the preparation for war. The number of shameful secrets keeps growing incessantly, boundlessly. How meaningless all censorship taboos become, and how meaningless the consequences for overstepping them, when your life is in danger.

• Algunos hombres de vida retirada y estudiosa, han enviado desde su armario o su claustro, rayos de luz intelectual que han agitado cortes, y revolucionado reinos; como la luna, que lejos del océano, y brillando sobre él con una luz serena y sobria, es la causa principal de todos esos flujos y reflujos que incesantemente perturban ese mundo de aguas.
