More quotes by Criss Jami
Love does not dwell on how much one receives in return. If there is ever any balance in love, it is in a contest of who can love who more.
Criss Jami
It is not so much freedom of speech but the right to truth that great men protect.
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
Man was created to glorify God. Now, that may encompass other things which God has planned for each man, but essentially, man was created to glorify God.
Criss Jami
Easily mistaken, it is not about a love for adversity, it is about knowing a strength and a faith so great that adversity, in all its adverse manifestations, hardly even exists.
Criss Jami
Ingredients to success: know what you do well, know what to do well, and know someone who's swell.

If a man cannot understand the beauty of life, it is probably because life never understood the beauty in him.
Criss Jami
It is not true that everyone is special. It is true that everyone was once special and still possesses the ability to recover it.
Criss Jami
Christ delves far beyond the means of superficiality, not simply because of his immaculate love, but also because he considers the distinct cases of each individual rather than withholding a broadened perception by use of stereotypes.
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
If I were to vote, I would intentionally vote for the goofiest candidate. It is my theory that when the people can outwit the leader, the more respected their voices will be.
Criss Jami
To be a philosopher, just reverse everything you have ever been told...and have a sense of humor doing it.
Criss Jami
We are to love God most importantly so that we can grow to love people as he loved us, not so that we can feel more divine and worthy than the worldly.
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
I think that there are excellent and poor thinking habits just as there are healthy and unhealthy eating habits and when a man really knows how to think, you cannot necessarily assert that he thinks too much in a strictly negative connotation. Perhaps this is in a sense food for thought, whereas the other is fool for thought.
Criss Jami
Some concepts are so incredibly risky they take an honest fool to try to articulate them.

You can't let the truth bring out the worst and let it get the best of you.
