More quotes by Criss Jami
To ask, 'How do you do it?' is already starting off on the wrong foot. When reaching for the stars, there does not have to be a 'how' if there is a big enough 'why'.
Criss Jami
Everyone pretends to be 'free thinkers', but few individuals pass the line into expressive territories that may be detrimental to their own social well-being.
Criss Jami
People love answers, but only as long as they are the ones who came up with them.
Criss Jami
All great leaders find a sense of balance through their levels of reception. For instance, those who support a leader may soften him, those who ignore him may challenge him, and those who oppose him may stroke his ego.
Criss Jami
I think there is a song out there to describe just about any situation.
Criss Jami
Cleverness isn't always true nor is the truth always clever
Criss Jami
I am thankful when I am hungry because then I know that when I eat, the food will taste better. Life has taught me that my true contentment rests in hope, and the pleasure itself is secondary. It is self-awareness, not happiness, that maintains peace.
Criss Jami
Labeled fools to the world are geniuses to the cosmos.
Criss Jami
Part of God's work in his people is synchronizing the heart and the mind thus providing freedom from the deceit of emotion-based beliefs. Emotions are changing while truth is absolute. They don't believe simply because it sounds good, or deep, beautiful, happy, fun, cool, simple, or intelligent to them but because it's true.
Criss Jami
Creativity is the highest form of intelligence. Over time, after developing a more advanced creative brain, I started feeling that my college education was more so something to be ashamed of rather than something to be proud of.
Criss Jami
Tolerance never exists without negative judgment. It is the sentiment of having a negative opinion about something yet still putting up with it.
Criss Jami
Beyond all sciences, philosophies, theologies, and histories, a child's relentless inquiry is truly all it takes to remind us that we don't know as much as we think we know.
Criss Jami
A pure heart does not demean the spirit of an individual, it, instead, compels the individual to examine his spirit.
Criss Jami
Oftentimes winning can become an addiction, whether good or bad, to the point where you would rather lose it all before you lose at all.
Criss Jami
It's easy to make a mess when you're not the one who has to clean it up.
Criss Jami
When I look at a person, I see a person - not a rank, not a class, not a title.
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
All the good stuff has already been said by someone somewhere at some point in time. You just have to find it. Today, communication pretty much comes down to understanding - saying what you have to say clearly and effectively...and then living it.
Criss Jami
People think that fun in Christ is non-existent, but there is fun wherever your heart lives.
Criss Jami
Many people in a rather reckless context claim to 'just tell it like it is'. In actuality, nobody really stresses what one says so much as the motive behind what one says hence, he is merely blowing hot air and detracting from 'what is'.
