The words of the scholar are to be understood. The words of the master are not to be understood. They are to be listened to as one listens to the wind in the trees and the sound of the river and the song of the bird. They will awaken something within the heart that is beyond all knowledge.
Anthony de Mello
Image
Silence is a trick when it imposes. Pedants and scholars, churchmen and physicians, abound in silent pride.
Johann Georg Ritter von Zimmermann
Image
There is no gardening without humility. Nature is constantly sending even its oldest scholars to the bottom of the class for some egregious blunder.
Alfred Austin
Image
Could I get mansions covering ten thousand miles, I'd house all the poor scholars and make them beam with smiles
Du Fu
Image
A scholar knows no boredom.
Jean Paul
Image
The scholar may be sure that he writes the tougher truth for the calluses on his palms. They give firmness to the sentence. Indeed, the mind never makes a great and successful effort, without a corresponding energy of the body.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
One learns more from a good scholar in a rage than from a score of lucid and laborious drudges.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
You never replace a great scholar who retires. If you try to do that, you end up with burnt-out volcanoes.

Eiji Yoshikawa
Image
Remember, Christ's scholars must study upon their knees.

The role of the scholar is to destroy chimeras, that of the statesman is to make use of them.
Gustave Le Bon
Image
It is the vice of scholars to suppose that there is no knowledge in the world but that of books.
William Hazlitt
Image
Education must be taken out of the hands of rich illiterates, third rate politicians, and put where it belongs: in the care of scholars. At present the whole University system is rotten to the core, and an appalling waste of time, energy and money.
Katherine Anne Porter
Image
Man Thinking must not be subdued by his instruments. Books are for the scholar's idle times. When he can read God directly, the hour is too precious to be wasted in other men's transcripts of their readings.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
Once scientists and scholars invest parts of their career in support of a paradigm, it becomes a sort of a self-betrayal to abandon it.
Subhash Kak
Image
The ordinary man is ruined by the flesh lusting against the spirit the scholar by the spirit lusting too much against the flesh.
Georg C. Lichtenberg
Image
If anyone makes himself his own master in the spiritual life, he makes himself scholar to a fool.
Bernard of Clairvaux
Image
The diligent scholar is he that loves himself, and desires to have reason to applaud and love himself.
William Godwin
Image
Muslims, scholars or not, are on the side of the oppressed and never on the side of the oppressors. Some scholars claim they don't do politics but if you listen to their statements in the Middle East or in other conferences, they support corrupt regimes and despots, such as as-Sissi.
Tariq Ramadan
Image
A scholar is a man with his inconvenience, that, when you ask him his opinion of any matter, he must go home and look up his manuscripts to know.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Image
Study the Bible like a soldier on a mission, not a scholar on a sabbatical.
Mark Driscoll
Image
The bottom line about the information possessed by non-Western peoples is that the information becomes valid only when offered by a white scholar recognized by the academic establishment in effect, the color of the skin guarantees scientific objectivity.
Vine Deloria Jr.
Image
An humble man without learning, but filled with the Holy Spirit, is more powerful than the most nobly-born profound scholar without that inspiration. He who is educated by the Divine Spirit can, in his time, lead others to receive the same Spirit.
Abdu'l-Bahá
Image
Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
