• We are completely unaware of our true nature because we identify ourselves with our body, our emotions and our thoughts, thus losing sight of our unchanging centre, which is pure consciousness. When we return to our true nature, our thoughts and perceptions no longer appear as modifications of a single substance, they come into being and subside like waves of the ocean.

• Children, don't waste a single second.
  Serve others, above all the poor,
  expecting nothing in return.
  Just as the person who offers God flowers
  is the first to enjoy their fragrance,
  the person who offers compassion
  is the first to receive its blessing.
  Wherever a heart beats
  with compassion:
  God is there.

  Mata Amritanandamayi

• I do not come into this pulpit hoping that perhaps somebody will of his own free will return to Christ. My hope lies in another quarter. I hope that my Master will lay hold of some of them and say, "You are mine, and you shall be mine. I claim you for myself." My hope arises from the freeness of grace, and not from the freedom of the will.

  Charles Spurgeon

• What joy have I in June's return?
  My feet are parched-my eyeballs burn,
  I scent no flowery gust;
  But faint the flagging zephyr springs,
  With dry Macadam on its wings,
  And turns me 'dust to dust.'

  Thomas Hood

• Today is the day when bold kites fly,
  When cumulus clouds roar across the sky.
  When robins return, when children cheer,
  When light rain beckons spring to appear.
  
  Today is the day when daffodils bloom,
  Which children pick to fill the room,
  Today is the day when grasses green,
  When leaves burst forth for spring to be seen.

  Robert McCracken

• All the sciences have a relation, greater or less, to human nature; and...however wide any of them may seem to run from it, they still return back by one passage or another.
