Julia’s latest, “Finding Water; The Art of Perseverance,” landed on my desk today. Here are some juicy quotes from it for you to chew:<\/p>\n

“Think before you speak is criticism’s motto; speak before you think is creation’s.” \u2013E.M. Forster<\/p>\n

“Happiness walks on busy feet.” \u2013 Kitte Turmell<\/p>\n

“Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; unbelief, in denying them.” \u2013Ralph Waldo Emerson<\/p>\n

“I am a daylight atheist.” \u2013 Brendan Behan<\/p>\n

“One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.” \u2013 Carl Jung<\/p>\n

“Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn’t” \u2013 Erica Jong<\/p>\n

“The outer world, with all its phenomena, is filled with divine splendor. We must have experienced the divine within ourselves before we can hope to discover it in our environment.” \u2013 Rudolf Steiner<\/p>\n
