Quotes


Assumption is the hallmark of ignorance.


​Beliefs are not facts.

Injustice and incivility flourish
​when good people watch but do or say nothing.

No matter how well you plan, life has a way of throwing things at you
that you never could have anticipated. Still, keep planning.
Being prepared for the things you can anticipate will give you
​one less thing to worry about when the surprise arrives.

No one else can absolve you of your guilt.
​Forgiveness can only come from within yourself.

Be the person you wish had been there for you.

The quality of an organization is measured
by the way in which its worse employee treats its customers and constituents.

I can't understand why actors are paid more than teachers. 

Most societal and political woes
are rooted in thinking that sorts people 
into categories of "us" and "them"
and issues into categories of "either-or."

Though I may disagree with your political opinions
I respect your right to express them,
​because that is required of citizens
​who choose to live in a democratically-governed society.

When asking questions, be prepared
to receive honest answers. Telling the truth
is more important ​to the character of some people
than telling a lie to prevent your discomfort.

Buddha's Teaching Summarized:

The purpose of life is to be happy.
The course of life involves suffering.
The cause of suffering is want.
