Idealism increases in direct proportion to one's distance from the problem.
We are all familiar with the argument: Make war dreadful enough, and there will be no war. And we none of us believe it.
It was such a spring day as breathes into a man an ineffable yearning, a painful sweetness, a longing that makes him stand motionless, looking at the leaves or grass, and fling out his arms to embrace he knows not what.
From behind a wooden crate we saw a long black-muzzled nose poking round at us. We took him out-soft, wobbly, tearful; set him down on his four, as yet not quite simultaneous legs, and regarded him.

By the cigars they smoke, and the composers they love, ye shall know the texture of men's souls.
Go home and say to yourself, βI am a wayward, foolish child. But He loves me! I have disobeyed and grieved Him ten thousand times. But He loves me! I have lost faith in some of my dearest friends and am very desolate. But He loves me! I do not love Him, I am even angry with Him! But He loves me!

If someone asks me how to get into their heart, I give them this practice: I Am Loving Awareness.
