Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.

Public education has not produced an educated public.

Without education we are in a horrible and deadly danger of taking educated people seriously.

A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special...

Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man’s training begins, it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly.

What signifies knowing the names, if you know not the nature of things?

There is only one happiness in life, to love and be loved.

Work is love made visible.

What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.

Compassion will cure more sins than condemnation.

There is no disguise which can for long conceal love where it exists or simulate it where it does not.

Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost.

I’m fascinated with myself and love hearing the sound of my own voice. I’d like to hear what I have to say. A lot of people don’t like being alone because they truly don’t like themselves, but I love me.

When we practice loving kindness and compassion we are the first ones to profit.

When you seek love with all your heart you shall find its echo in the universe.
