Mike  Norton
“It is not what you can do for your country, but what you can do for all of mankind.”
Mike Norton

Gautama Buddha
“Peace comes from within.  Do not seek it without.”
Siddhārtha Gautama

Dave Eggers
“You see pictures of Buddha and he’s sitting, reclining, at peace. The Hindus have their twelve-armed elephant god, who also seems so content but not powerless. But leave it to Christians to have a dead and bloody man nailed to a cross.”
Dave Eggers, Your Fathers, Where Are They? And the Prophets, Do They Live Forever?

Hermann Hesse
“Thus Gotama [Buddha] walked toward the town to gather alms, and the two samanas recognized him solely by the perfection of his repose, by the calmness of his figure, in which there was no trace of seeking, desiring, imitating, or striving, only light and peace”
Hermann Hesse, Siddhartha

Meister Eckhart
“Spirituality is not to be learned by flight from the world, or by running away from things, or by turning solitary and going apart from the world. Rather, we must learn an inner solitude wherever or with whomsoever we may be. We must learn to penetrate things and find God there.”
Meister Eckhart
