• Heaven cannot but be high. Earth cannot but be broad. The sun and moon cannot but revolve. All creation cannot but flourish. To do so is their TAO. But it is not from extensive study that this may be known, nor by dialectical skill that his may be made clear. The true sage will have none of these.

• Wouldn't it be wonderful if we had a world where everybody said, 'We don't know?' The fact is that you're surrounded -God and you don't see God, because you KNOW ABOUT God. The final barrier to the vision of God is your God concept. You miss God because you think you know. The highest knowledge of God is to know God as unknowable. All revelations, however divine, are never any more than a finger pointing at the moon. As we say in the East, 'When the sage points to the moon, all the idiot sees is the finger'.

  Anthony de Mello

• Julian was not insensible of the advantages of freedom. From his studies he had imbibed the spirit of ancient sages and heroes; his life and fortunes had depended on the caprice of a tyrant; and, when he ascended the throne, his pride was sometimes mortified by the reflection that the slaves who would not dare to censure his defects were not worthy to applaud his virtues.

• Oh, most magnificent and noble Nature!
  Have I not worshipped thee with such a love
  As never mortal man before displayed?

  And searched into thy hidden and mysterious ways
  As Poet, as Philosopher, as Sage?

• I have on my office wall a wise and useful reminder by Anne Morrow Lindbergh concerning one of the realities of life. She wrote, "My life cannot implement in action the demands of all the people to whom my heart responds." That's good counsel for us all, not as an excuse to forgo duty, but as a sage point about pace and the need for quality in relationships.

• Mucho pueden alabar los árboles tan rectos y altos, el pino navegante, el cedro orgulloso y alto, el olmo que propulsa la vid, el álamo que nunca se seca, el roble constructor, único rey de todos los bosques, el álamo temblón bueno para las varas, el ciprés fúnebre, el laurel, alimento de poderosos conquistadores y sabios poetas, el abeto que aún llora, el tejo obediente a la voluntad del doblador, el abedul para las varas, el sebo para el molino, la mirra que sangra dulce en la herida amarga, el haya guerrera, el fresno para nada malo, el olivo fructífero, y la platana redonda, la encina talladora, el arce que rara vez suena hacia dentro.
