The more busy you
are with the improvement of your inner life, the more active you become in
social life, helping other people.
It is as wrong for one person to rule many as it is
for many to rule one.
— Vladimir
Chertkov
What is truth? For the majority of people, truth is
the majority of counted votes.
— Thomas Carlyle
When I sit on the seashore and listen to the waves beating
on the sand, I feel free from any obligation, and I think that all the people
of the world can change their constitutions without me.
— Henry David
Thoreau
Never build, but
always plant: in the case of the first, nature will interfere and destroy the
creation of your work, but in the case of the second, nature will help you,
causing growth in everything you planted. The same thing happens in your spiritual
life: those things which are in harmony with the eternal laws of human nature
will grow, but those things which correspond to the temporal wishes of people
will not.
