“Those who read books cannot understand the teachings and, what's more, may even go astray. But those who try to observe the things going on in the mind, and always take that which is true in their own minds as their standard, never get muddled. They are able to comprehend suffering, and ultimately will understand Dharma. Then, they will understand the books they read.”
― Buddhadasa Bhikkhu

“I have studied these things - you have not.”
― Isaac Newton

“Study the assumptions behind your actions. Then study the assumptions behind your assumptions.”
― Idries Shah, Learning How to Learn: Psychology and Spirituality in the Sufi Way

“Never regard study as a duty but as an enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later works belong."

~Albert Einstein

"Einstein is referring to ones 'legacy' and its intended future recipients as being willfully purposed to benefit them on their journey through this gift of life given to us by God”
