The best gift one can give God or neighbor is one's heart. Insight is the needle pulling the thread of life. It is better to know without speaking than to speak without knowing. Wise men learn more from their mistakes than fools learn from their successes. What is not done in love is done in vain.
Music is the language of the stars.
Understanding is the child of knowledge who is the mother of experience who is the father of wisdom. The best counsel of the wicked is inferior to the worst counsel of the righteous. He who climbs a mountain to find the Lord at its peak knows the journey was well worth the effort. Suffering tempers the soul and sharpens the spirit. We are all involved in the struggle between light and darkness, and the Lord is Judge over all of us.
