Leadership

"Learning has to come from doing, not intellectualizing.” (Derrick Jensen)

"Every spiritual master in every tradition talks about the significance of small things in a complex world. Small actions in social life, small efforts in the spiritual life, small moments in the personal life. All of them become great in the long run, the mystics say, but all of them look like little or nothing in themselves." (Joan Chittister)

“A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.” (Jackie Robinson)

"Do not follow where a path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail" (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

"Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves." (Carl Jung)

"Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn’t go away." (Philip K. Dick)

"Stand still. The trees ahead and bushes beside you are not lost. Wherever you are is called Here, and you must treat it as a powerful stranger, must ask permission to know it and be known. The forest breathes. Listen ... No two trees are the same to Raven. No two branches are the same to Wren ... Stand still. The forest knows where you are. You must let it find you." (David Wagoner)

“Helping, fixing, and serving represent three different ways of seeing life. When you help, you see life as weak. When you fix, you see life as broken. When you serve, you see life as whole. Fixing and helping may be the work of the ego, and service the work of the soul.” (Rachel Naomi Remen)

"I never teach others. I only attempt to provide them conditions in which they can learn." (Albert Einstein)

"Peace is the beauty of life. It is sunshine. It is the smile of a child, the love of a mother, the joy of a father, the togetherness of a family. It is the advancement of [humans], the victory of a just cause, the triumph of truth. Peace is all of these and more and more. (Menachem Begin)
