Mohammad Ali Knowledge is like waters; some descend from the heavens, some spring from the earth. For all knowledge proceeds from a twofold source-either from divine inspiration or external sense. Francis Bacon Music can change the world because it can change people. Bono I feel no need for any other faith than my faith in the kindness of human beings.

Buck The only way to bring peace to the earth is to learn to make our own life peaceful.

Just lie down. Natalie Goldberg People usually consider walking on water or in thin air a miracle. But I think the real miracle is to walk on earth.

Pawnee Prayer You are not here to save the world but you are here to touch the hands that are within your reach. Motto of Mission of Love (Kathleen Price) Think of the world you carry within you. Rainer Maria Rilke I have always found that my view of success has been iconoclastic: success to me is not about money or status or fame, its about finding a livelihood that brings me joy and self-sufficiency and a sense of contributing to the world.

Your profession is what you were put on earth to do with such passion and such intensity that it becomes spiritual in calling. Vincent van Gogh The greatest crime is not developing your potential. When you do what you do best, you are helping not only yourself, but the world. Roger Williams Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we’re liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. Marianne Williamson The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.
