Rudolf Steiner
“When anything has to be borne there is at once added the power to bear it steadfastly if we will only reflect calmly on this power and also take time to notice that which wants to manifest itself in the soul. When something painful appears, and when at the same time there is a sure feeling in the soul that forces are to be found which will make the pain bearable and with which we are able to connect ourselves, we are then able to take up such a position towards experiences, which would be unbearable in the course of our ordinary life, so that we seem to be the spectator of ourselves in all such experiences.”
Rudolf Steiner

Ram Dass
“As they say in the Sikh religion—Once you realize God knows everything, you're free. I had been through many years of psychoanalysis and still I had managed to keep private places in my head—I wouldn't say they were big, labeled categories, but they were certain attitudes or feelings that were still very private. And suddenly I realized that he knew everything that was going on in my head, all the time, and that he still loved me. Because who we are is behind all that.”
Ram Dass, Be Here Now

David Bentley Hart
“…for some reason, apparently, our habits of thought don't point towards the obvious.”
David Bentley Hart

Rudolf Steiner
“Wir Theoso­phen wollen die andern gern verstehen; und wir können war­ten, bis sie uns Gleiches mit Gleichem vergelten werden. Sollte ich mein mathematisch-nüchternes Denken, und meine Spinoza-Verehrung verleugnen müssen, weil ich Theosoph bin, wahrlich ich wäre es in einer Stunde nicht mehr. Da ich aber Theosoph geworden bin, weil ich einstmals zwischen den Vorlesungen über «Integration linearer Differentialglei­chungen», synthetischer Geometrie und deskriptiver Geome­trie wirklich habe mathematisch denken gelernt und damit auch den Zugang zum spirituellen Forschen im Sinne Platos er­langt habe, so wird mir wohl—nichts passieren.”
Rudolf Steiner

Michael Frayn
“Of course, one is familiar with the experience of seeing something ambiguous. “Now it is the Taj Mahal—now it is fog.” And one can imagine having a procedural rule that anything ambiguous should be treated as the Taj Mahal unless we see that it is labelled “fog.”
Michael Frayn
