More quotes by Criss Jami
It's simple, it's not that simple or life is simple, but the things in it are not. When a man does not understand it, he tends to inflate it. When he does, he tends to deflate it. In the end, neither images are fully accurate.

I am a fan of overdoing something, but not running it into the ground. They are complete opposites with only a fine line separating them.

The hope is indeed that some will experience and believe: The purpose of a number of spiritual gurus is to demonstrate to God-fearing men faux spirituality.

Let what offends God offend me, and what God pardons, I pardon.

A major gap between many of the denominations stems from how people define some of the most basic terms, such as 'religion' itself.

A man who loves others based solely on how they make him feel, or what they do for him, is really not loving others at all - but loving only himself.

In learning and argumentation, the quality brain is similar to a facility of maximum security. What passes the logic test, free of fallacy and pretense, then must pass the test of biblical accuracy in order to proceed as an adopted, reliable truth.

God tests, but he does not tempt.

A lack of common sense usually ends in some heroic feat, much like the soldier who dives onto the grenade so that others may live.
