Our Lord has written the promise of the resurrection, not in books alone, but in every leaf in spring-time. – Martin Luther
Let the wife make the husband glad to come home, and let him make her sorry to see him leave. – Martin Luther
If you ask Zen people they will say; tea is not something that you pour with unawareness and drink like any other drink. It is not a drink, it is meditation; it is prayer. So they listen to the kettle creating a melody, and in that listening they become more silent, more alert. – Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
