Criss Jami
When focusing only on one's credentials one boasts his own incompetence in his capacity for discernment of the individual.
Criss Jami
When it comes to judging individuals, I do not like remarks such as 'too good to be true.' They speak as though one is rewarding the nature of evil. Yet, ironically, we still wonder where all the good people have gone.
Criss Jami
I'm convinced that most men don't know what they believe, rather, they only know what they wish to believe. How many people blame God for man's atrocities, but wouldn't dream of imprisoning a mother for her son's crime?
Criss Jami
People think that fun in Christ is non-existent, but there is fun wherever your heart lives.
Criss Jami

The trouble with poetry is it's often written to the sound of a drum only the poet may hear nonetheless, blessed are those poets who always manage to find unshakeable pleasure in their own works.
Criss Jami
A part of me genuinely wanted to be the worst because I was so sick of everyone fighting to be the best.
Criss Jami
Tension, in the long run, is a more dangerous force than any feud known to man.
Criss Jami
Society tells me to follow my own truth, but I don't let society tell me what to do. If you need someone to tell you that, chances are you're part of the crowd that will move on to the next fashion that comes around.
Criss Jami
As long as I am breathing, in my eyes, I am just beginning.
Criss Jami
The man who is most aggressive in teaching tolerance is the most intolerant of all: he wants a world full of people too timid and ashamed to really disagree with anything.
Criss Jami
Every man has a specific skill, whether it is discovered or not, that more readily and naturally comes to him than it would to another, and his own should be sought and polished. He excels best in his niche - originality loses its authenticity in one's efforts to obtain originality.
Criss Jami
Never take advice about never taking advice. That is an old vice of men - to dish it out without being able to take it - the blind leading the blind into more blindness.
Criss Jami
Discernment is the son of good judgment and the father of self-control. When mixed with an already clear conscience, the ability to read the true motives of a critic keeps one's conscience both clear and at ease.
