Do you wish to rise? Begin by descending. You plan a tower that will pierce the clouds? Lay first the foundation of humility.

Unless you believe you will not understand.

What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.

The truth is like a lion; you don’t have to defend it. Let it loose; it will defend itself.

The greatest kindness one can render to any man is leading him to truth.
