Words derive their power from the original word. – Meister Eckhart
A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we dont know ourselves! Why, thirty or forty skins or hides, as thick and hard as an oxs or bears, cover the soul. Go into your own ground and learn to know yourself there. – Meister Eckhart
One person who has mastered life is better than a thousand persons who have mastered only the contents of books, but no one can get anything out of life without God. – Meister Eckhart
We are celebrating the feast of the Eternal Birth which God the Father has borne and never ceases to bear in all eternity… But if it takes not place in me, what avails it? Everything lies in this, that it should take place in me. – Meister Eckhart
