Wisdom Quote by Gregory Dickow — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“We give our mistakes too much power. Instead, see a mistake for what it is. It is not the real you… You are more valuable than the opinion others have of you.”

“…what we focus on shapes the soul—the mind, the will, the emotions.”

“Purpose gives perspective to your pain and powers you through it. Without it, your pain can paralyze you.”

“Christianity is not a religion. it is a relationship with God.”

“God’s love sweeps away everything before it. It sweeps away your past, your pain, your fears, your regrets.”

“What you focus on and the way you think will determine the way you live.”

“Your life is not a simulation; it's the real game. Play wisely.”

“I feel with some passion that what we truly are is private, and almost infinitely complex, and ambiguous, and both external and internal, and double- or triple- or multiply natured, and largely mysterious even to ourselves; and furthermore that what we are is only part of us, because identity, unlike "identity", must include what we do. And I think that to find oneself and every aspect of this complexity reduced in the public mind to one property that apparently subsumes all the rest ("gay", "black", "Muslim", whatever) is to be the victim of a piece of extraordinary intellectual vulgarity.”

“A spoon does not know the taste of soup, nor a learned fool the taste of wisdom.”

“Dirty or clean, crumpled or finely creased, you are still priceless to those who Love you.”

“Wenn man noch nicht das Leben kennt, wie sollte man den Tod kennen.”

“If you want to create the common sense that comes from twenty years of being in the world, you need to devote twenty years to the task. You can't assemble an equivalent collection of heuristics in less time; experience is algorithmically incompressible.”
