John Muir, Earth — planet, Universe[Muir’s home address, as inscribed on the inside front cover of his first field journal]

Anne is God. I am God. The happy grass are God, Jill groks in beauty always. Jill is God. All shaping and making and creating together.

Peonage, Anti-Lynch Bill, poll tax, these are our issues. They are the most controversial issues in American life, and some of us will have to die for them! Yes, we want to join with the CIO! We cannot stop for controversy!” And there in the faces of my people I saw strength. There with the...

We are meant to be one. And only after we realize that amazing truth can we find what we need – true peace.

Where there is unity there is always victory.

Where there is unity, there is always victory

Let us dedicate this new era to mothers around the world, and also to the mother of all mothers — Mother Earth. It is up to us to keep building bridges to bring the world closer together, and not destroy them to divide us further apart. We can pave new roads towards peace simply by...

Communities are not built of friends, or of groups of people with similarstyles and tastes, or even of people who like and understand each other.They are built of people who feel they are part of something that isbigger than themselves: a shared goal or enterprise, like righting a wrong,or building a road, or raising children,...

Give other Christians permission to be different from you. You’re not the only Christ-follower in the world, and neither are you the most committed. Your way of loving Jesus is neither the only way for the best. If you don’t know that, your Christian world is way too small.

We are one, after all, you and I, together we suffer, together exist and forever will recreate one another.

Man is this plural and collective unity in which the unity of destination and the differences of destinies are to be understood through each other.

The deepest of level of communication is not communication, but communion. It is wordless … beyond speech … beyond concept.

Only through the group, I realised — through sharing the suffering of the group — could the body reach that height of existence that the individual alone could never attain. And for the body to reach that level at which the divine might be glimpsed, a dissolution of individuality was necessary. The tragic quality of...

God is going to send you someone that will rescue you. Then one day you will rescue them in return and together your story will rescue others. He has always been a God of rescues and a maker of warrior’s for his grace. You only need to believe that you are part of something greater...

If all you do is set goals and achieve them then you have learned to be a doer. Happiness isn’t at the end of the next goal. It is the journey of aligning your choices to mold your character into the type of person who lives their belief system, then creates a life purpose that...

When a poet’s mind is perfectly equipped for its work, it is constantly amalgamating disparate experience; the ordinary man’s experience is chaotic, irregular, fragmentary. The latter falls in love, or reads Spinoza, and these two experiences have nothing to do with each other, or with the noise of the typewriter or the smell of cooking;...

There are often beams in our eye that we know not of. Let us therefore ask that our eye may become single, for then we ourselves shall become wholly single.

The historian assesses that the investment of the wealthy classes in the Bank of England wedded them to the fate of the nation as a whole and to the maintenance of its stability.

Unlike ‘other’ religious belief systems in competition with Christianity, we have not been called to become ‘absorbed’ into the deity but rather brought into communion with God through union with Christ thereby maintaining our unique individuality and personal identity

So your flesh shall be part of mine And part of mine be yours. Brother and sister we shall be Whose unity endures. Always the sister doll will cry, Made in these careful ways, Cry on and on, Come back to me, Come back, in a few days.

The main point of the article was that a man’s world is different from a women’s world and a man’s emotions are different from a women’s emotions and only marriage can bring the two worlds and the two different sets of emotions together properly.

Right is not right; so is not so. If right were really right, it would differ so clearly from not right that there would be no need for argument. If so were really so, it would differ so clearly from not so that there would be no need for argument. Forget the years; forget distinctions....

Despite my misgivings, I have acquiesced in some of the administration’s proposals because it is important to preserve national unity in this time of crisis and to move the legislative process forward,

The perfect state is one where men weep and rejoice over the same things.

I was beginning to see fewer of our weaknesses and more of our strengths; the events of the day were a reminder of how each of us had certain abilities that the rest did not. It was as if we were each a part of a whole body- one the hands, another the legs, and...

That all opposites—such as mass and energy, subject and object, life and death—are so much each other that they are perfectly inseparable, still strikes most of us as hard to believe. But this is only because we accept as real the boundary line between the opposites. It is, recall, the boundaries themselves which create the...

He extended his hand, and one by one, everyone put their hands on top of his as a show of unity.

The pieces of a puzzle aren’t together or apart.

Humans are like sheepscattered everywherea shepherd is always needed to keep them united

Love for All All for Love

It is in unity that we find strength, in unity we find hope, and in unity we can stand firm as the darkness approaches. Let us stand together – and stand firm – against the many faces of hate.

The masses of flies over the dirt do not state their unity; it is the dirt that brings them together.

Revere the unity of all-that-iscarry out your daily activities with compassion;if you do not limit your compassion,you yourself will not be limited.

Remember to forget yourself

We are the beauty of the worldenveloped within the confines of a human structure:created out of love to lovefor all of eternity.

We are the beauty of the world enveloped within the confines of a human structure: created out of love to love until the end of time.

Our differences need not divide us because even as we are unique and individual, we are also all one.

As long as our ideas are the same, we will never be apart.

We live in a world where everything is connected. We can not longer think in terms of us and them when it comes to the consequences of the way we live. Today it’s all about WE.

And therefore the idea of serving mankind, of the brotherhood and oneness of people, is fading more and more in the world, and indeed the idea now even meets with mockery, for how can one drop one’s habits, where will this slave go now that he is so accustomed to satisfying the innumerable needs he...

I didn’t just hear music. It seemed as if I were part of the music.

Sometimes the thing that brings us together also pulls us apart. Sort of like a zipper.

Each person you meetis an aspect of yourself,clamoring for love.

It is as if the stuff of which we are made were totally transparent and therefore imperceptible and as if the only appearances of which we can be aware are cracks and planes of fracture in that transparent matrix. Dreams and percepts and stories are perhaps cracks and irregularities in the uniform and timeless matrix....

Neither is necessarily a better or more valuable oarsman than the other; both the long arms and the strong back are assets to the boat. But if they are to row well together, each of these oarsmen must adjust to the needs and capabilities of the other. Each must be prepared to compromise something in...

Unity is vision; it must have been part of the process of learning to see.

Every ‘no’ is a ‘yes’ to something.

Suffering occurs when love’s two hands pull your soul in two directions.

For us to progress, we must be community in liberty, equality and fraternity.

And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
