Wisdom Quote by Bohdi Sanders — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“Success attracts enemies. Progress invites jealousy. Be successful and keep moving forward anyway!”

“There’s people sitting around talking about who they think you are, but they can’t even comprehend who you really are.”

“Never bring up someone's past when they’ve changed and become a better person!”

“Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them.”

“Wisdom cannot be stolen - it can only be shared.”

“Ofttimes we are prone to want to see things move along faster than they sometimes do. We are inclined to force an issue, to have a showdown, to force our patterns of thought and action on others. We think time will not wait. But often we will make haste by going a little slower.”

“An abolitionist is, as I have developed that notion, one who (1) maintains that we cannot justify animal use, however “humane” it may be; (2) rejects welfare campaigns that seek more “humane” exploitation, or single-issue campaigns that seek to portray one form of animal exploitation as morally worse than other forms of animal exploitation (e.g., a campaign that seeks to distinguish fur from wool or leather); and (3) regards veganism, or the complete rejection of the consumption or use of any animal products, as a moral baseline. An abolitionist regards creative, nonviolent vegan education as the primary form of activism, because she understands that the paradigm will not shift until we address demand and educate people to stop thinking of animals as things we eat, wear, or use as our resources.”

“The Wise are Superb Observers of Nature and Rise Superior to the Blows of Fortune”

“You cannot change what happened. You cannot unsay the words, unmake the choices, remove the circumstances that arrived without your permission and shaped you in ways you would not have chosen. That territory is closed. But how you carry what happened — what meaning you make of it, what it teaches you, what you build from it, what kind of person you decide to become in the light of having lived through it — that territory remains entirely open. The past does not have the authority to determine your future. It has the authority only to inform it. And informing is not the same as determining. What you do with what you have lived through — the wisdom you extract from it, the compassion it produces in you, the understanding of yourself and of others that it has made possible — that is still yours to shape.”
