Dan Desmarques QUOTES

61 " Between extremes, calm finds itself in the center, often perceived as chaotic. It is in the center of the chaos that the wise find the perfect balance, between what should and shouldn't be, what has been and could be, right and wrong, fear and courage. Along this path, luck favors those who are brave enough to ignore the conceptualizations of what is real or unreal, appreciated or unappreciated, possible or impossible. And thus, their life is guided towards risk with safety provided by the third eye. "

― Dan Desmarques

62 " Between our mind and an object there is nothing but self-developed conceptions. "

― Dan Desmarques

63 " Blessed are the sons of Odin for they will see Valhalla behind curtains of fire and smell the blissful fragrances of its flowers after being pierced in battle. And even though their heart is often poisoned by the darkest emotions experienced and their mind fogged by betrayal, still they can claim any storm they find themselves in as their own and gather courage from its lightenings. It is because of this wholesome attitude to turmoil and chaos that their glory is always predicted by the oracle, for their nature mirrors the dream of their own god. "

― Dan Desmarques

64 " Blessed are the storms that favor the sons of Odin. "

― Dan Desmarques

65 " Consciousness is a ripple of reverberations that initiate in the heart and resonate like echoes in the mind. Fear not then that which you speak, but be aware of how it affects others, for the effects of it will return multiplied unto you; and always let that which is good be known, so that you can enjoy the multiplied effects of it too, or learn to discern both. Because those who think too much before they speak have not yet realized how fear restrains them from being conscious of their own potential. "

― Dan Desmarques

66 " Consciousness represents the intuitive ability to recognize the universal truths that govern existence, which lurk behind the veil of ignorance. But no one recognizes that he is ignorant until he exposes himself, internally or externally, to the questions that will lead to such recognition. "

― Dan Desmarques

67 " Contrary to public opinion, writers are not crazy. It takes a very sharp thinking, an extremely high ability for reasoning, and a very clear mind to write easily, quickly and with value. Whoever prides himself for preparing a short book for more than a year, shouldn’t be proud of his achievements, for such attitude pollutes the truth in art with a lie, and deceives the population into following the wrong leaders and reality changers. "

― Dan Desmarques

68 " That which is beautifully made known, appears first in the heart of the seeker as a storm, clouding the imagination, shaking the beliefs and pulling towards the unknown. "

― Dan Desmarques

69 " Cyclic karma is not a metaphysical approach to the meaning of life because you can see it in history books. The world always attracts that which scares it the most, as if ignorance was not an excuse to avoid responsibility. And the world of today, is as silent about that which has been vilified, as in the case of the Muslims and other minorities, as it once was about the German Jews and other persecuted groups. But likewise and as before, by the same spiritual law, when you ignore that which you don't identify yourself with, you are dragged into a war you didn't choose to have. "

― Dan Desmarques

70 " Death only exists for the personality and not for the spirit. "

― Dan Desmarques

71 " Don’t feel guilty about what you couldn’t do for a living person after that person dies, for the dead understand the living beyond what they can see about themselves. They will see what you can’t see and know what you can’t understand yet. "

― Dan Desmarques

72 " Don’t feel shame because of your current life or past failures. Know that nobody is perfect and you can overcome your limitations with experience and constant learning. Focus in being a better person every day, as improvements can change your life for better, but focusing on shame and failures will only lead you towards apologizing yourself. Lazy and irresponsible people often justify their behavior with their past, while responsible and successful people strive to be better and proud of themselves. "

― Dan Desmarques

73 " Don’t let your thoughts be defeated by your brain. Don’t let your brain be defeated by fear. Don’t let fear be defeated by experience. Don’t let experience cloud your discernment. But do look, and see, and act according to your heart, and waste no time in doing that, for time is more limited than your perception of it. "

― Dan Desmarques

74 " Doubt is all that is needed to undo anything. "

― Dan Desmarques

75 " Avoid those who can’t laugh about their own failures, for they have not failed enough. Avoid those who judge your decisions, for they have never learned how to make their own. Avoid those who think they know everything, for they know little about life. Avoid those who discredit your knowledge without testing it, for they will never learn. Avoid those who demand love, for they can’t love themselves. Avoid those who promise love, because they won’t know how to love you. And while avoiding them, don’t avoid judging yourself accordingly, or you won’t be avoiding them but the opportunity to look at yourself through them. Every failure mirrors a lesson. "

― Dan Desmarques

76 " Dreams change the structures of thought. You can only achieve and work for what you can see first in your mind. Therefore, you shouldn’t be jealous or confused in regards the doing of others, or what you can't do, but rather learn from everyone. "

― Dan Desmarques

77 " Each person has a peculiar life with good and bad things in it. Do not merely focus in the good things others achieve, because you’re not aware of the price they’re willing to pay and that you might not be able to bear in the same way they do. "

― Dan Desmarques

78 " Earthlings tend to believe that they know the reality surrounding them, but such reality is in actuality just a mass schizophrenic manifestation supported by shadowing reflections of their own thoughts. It is not real unless agreed upon. And the more they keep themselves protected by their groups, to which they attach themselves based on emotional and psychological similarities and familiarities, the more arrogant they will become in such view of the world while detaching themselves further away from the truth. Life then becomes like an Asylum for souls who are ignorant of their ignorance, deluded in their own shared perceptions, and randomly wondering why the ghosts of their own reflections keep changing shape. "

― Dan Desmarques

79 " Why be human when you can be a god? "

― Dan Desmarques

80 " For an existential problem to be overcome, it must be experienced in the form of a projected and dramatized dilemma. "
