Learning isn't acquiring knowledge so much as it is trimming information that has already been acquired.
Criss Jami
Image
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'.

Image
A good work ethic is not so much a concern for hard work but rather one for responsibility. There have been a great many men and women who have in fact used work or hustle or selfish ambition as an escape from real responsibility, an escape from purpose. In matters such as these, the hard worker is just as dysfunctional as the sloth.

A distaste for the new is not always fear of the unknown, but sometimes ambition. Some people don't like the new way simply because they never got a chance to master the old way.
Criss Jami
Image
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.

Anger's like a battery that leaks acid right out of me And it starts from the heart til it reaches my outer me
Criss Jami
Image
Gloating is a superficial glowing, floating is an idle flowing, and bloatedness is the paralysis of blowing up because silent movement results in loud victories.

One who enjoys finding errors will then start creating errors to find.

Image
The role of genius is not to complicate the simple, but to simplify the complicated.

I never feel unsafe except for when the majority is on my side.

Image
I imagine that the intelligent people are the ones so intelligent that they don't even need or want to look 'intelligent' anymore.

The best people are always the worst. They drive everyone mad by being so good at second-guessing everything bad.

The last thing Scripture should do is make you blind in the world. Instead, you hear everything, see everything, and feel everything because everything just so happens to point right back to it.

The love of conflict is most evident when opposing forces join sides to defeat the peacemaker.
