Restless Heart Quotes

“Patience is the antidote to the restless poison of the Ego. Without it we all become ego-maniacal bulls in china shops, destroying our future happiness as we blindly rush in where angels fear to tread. In these out-of-control moments, we bulldoze through the best possible outcomes for our lives, only to return to the scene of the crime later to cry over spilt milk.”
― Anthon St. Maarten, Divine Living: The Essential Guide To Your True Destiny

“The problem with me is that I cannot focus when she is on my mind. I can’t. I probably will make a mistake when writing that paper and will start writing everything I feel about her—the professor will be very happy with that, I am sure. Oh well, such is my life. I guess I’ve been attempting my best to forget her for several weeks now. But even in that act of forgetting her, I am remembering her. I am recollecting her and recreating her in my mind. And that’s where everything falls apart. In remembering her, I remember her goodness. In remembering her, I remember her weaknesses and my own. In remembering her, I am remembering myself. Out of that dark cave of mine, I call myself out. And then all of the remembering starts again. I doodle, I twitch, I aim restlessly for some unseen goal. And then my thoughts drift to you.

I’ll let them stay there for now. Just for a minute.

Or two.”
― Moses Y. Mikheyev

“His mind remained freakishly pin-point sharp until his last days, but his body had shut-down a good six months before. He surprised his hospice doctor and nurses by clinging to life long after he should have expired. It was a fear of dying, driven by guilt over something he did early on. He was afraid of judgment day. His strict Catholic upbringing wreaked havoc in his brain and kept his will from preventing his body to die.”
― Stephen Joseph Mitskavich, Crossing a Bridge through Time; Conversations with my Father before it's too Late

“Hope filled his restless and broken heart. He lifted his battered, shameful soul and offered it. Take me, Jesus. Cleanse me. I believe.”
― Victoria Lynn, Once I Knew

“Inside my soul… within my heart… it hurts… it’s all I really know…
My restlessness – how to heal that? I never, nowhere feel at home…
The peachy fluff along your neck… the pillow scented with your hair… are in my heart… but they don’t help… You just can’t understand this…”
― Dr Jasmine, Love, Demystified

“Men of ritual, men of blind worship,
will never know the breath of life,
which in a way, is animal blessing,
to know life is to be restless with light.”
― Abhijit Naskar, The God Sonnets: Naskar Art of Theology
