Wisdom Quote by Vivian Amis — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Knowing the Truth is not based on knowledge, but on being "it".”

“Only in the silence of our mind are we One.”

“What is life to Spirit, is death to the ego.”

“Know your real Self, beyond who you think you are.”

“Among wise men there is no place at all left for hatred. For no one except the greatest of fools would hate good men. And there is no reason at all for hating the bad. For just as weakness is a disease of the body, so wickedness is a disease of the mind. And if this is so, since we think of people who are sick in body as deserving sympathy rather than hatred, much more so do they deserve pity rather than blame who suffer an evil more severe than any physical illness.”

“Beware those who stand nearest,”

“Be beautiful if you can, wise if you want to, but be respected - that is essential.”

“Then as now, I believed that when we’re uncertain of the road ahead, the wisest course is to trace our steps back home, however we define it, and stay until we find our bearings again.”

“Before big bridges, deep tunnels and the advent of health and safety regulations, there were many ways to cross rivers. They would use rowing boats, rickety rafts or in the absence of a vessel, swim or wade. Everyone knew what a stepping-stone was. They all understood that it was not something that you would want to stand on for any length of time. It was a means to an end, an important point and a route from A to B.”
