Wisdom Quote by Aaron Ananth — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“The compulsion to do something for fun or pleasure is a bondage. Even wealth becomes a bondage when you think that having it means you must use it to seek pleasure and gratification.”

“Beyond the mind lies true gratification — music, love, freedom, playfulness. The mind cannot grasp them; it simply dissolves and lets you enjoy.”

“The stupidity is impressing others with your physical body and expecting love for your soul.”

“Everything is right here, and you are panicking for no reason.”

“Realized knowledge is wisdom and transformation, while informative knowledge is logic and thinking. These two are entirely different dimensions and states of being.”

“When the jump is beyond, you don’t need to solve every tiny problem one at a time.”

“Aeschylus writes, "In our sleep, pain that cannot forget falls drop by drop upon the heart and in our own despair, against our will, comes wisdom through the awful grace of God.”

“True craft isn’t in holding tight, but in release: letting wood reveal its wild grain, letting self dissolve into the hum beneath all things.”

“They say that patriotism is the last refuge to which a scoundrel clings steal a little and they throw you in jail. Steal a lot and then they make you king.”

“Do you have a leather jacket? One for a ten-year-old boy?" I asked the man selling leather jackets and gloves in Covent Garden, London. "Yes, I have one right here!" And the man dug out a fine leather jacket that looked styled and tailored for a young boy. "I'm buying this for my son" I said to him. "I love this jacket, it's perfect, I think I will just come back for it tomorrow, though! I'll be back tomorrow, okay?" And the man reached his arms above his head, and said with a big smile upon his face "You only have one life to live! What is the difference if you do something today, or if you do it tomorrow?" I thought about the man's words. And I bought the jacket. He was right, there is no difference, really, between doing something today and doing something tomorrow, when you only have one life to live! Afterall, tomorrow may never come! All you really have is today!”
