1 " Music is ... A higher revelation than all Wisdom & Philosophy "
― Ludwig van Beethoven
2 " Good books are rare, and to have a really good library, a few shelves are all we need. When I was still on my campus in India, I was convinced, like many professors, that if the Lord was to be found anywhere, it was in the lower stacks of the library. But now - just as when I go into a big department store, I can say, " How many things I don't need! How many expensive suits I don't want!" - when I enter a big library I say, " What tomes I don't have to read again! What folios I will never open!" This feeling of freedom will come to all of us when we realise, in the depths of our meditation, that all wisdom lies within. "
3 " If have the gift of prophesy, all wisdom and knowledge and have no love, I have failed to manifest my true soul. "
― Lailah Gifty Akita ,
4 " More helpful than all wisdom is one draught of simple human pity that will not forsake us. "
― George Eliot , The Mill on the Floss
5 " Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy. "
6 " To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him. "
― Gautama Buddha
7 " And I pray thee, loving Jesus, that as Thou hast graciously given me to drink in with delight the words of Thy knowledge, so Thou wouldst mercifully grant me to attain one day to Thee, the fountain of all wisdom and to appear forever before Thy face. "
8 " Humanity's legacy of stories and storytelling is the most precious we have. All wisdom is in our stories and songs. A story is how we construct our experiences. At the very simplest, it can be: 'He/she was born, lived, died.' Probably that is the template of our stories - a beginning, middle, and end. This structure is in our minds. "
