The task of the educator lies in seeing that the child does not confound good with immobility and evil with activity.  Maria Montessori quotes The dread of evil is a much more forcible principle of human actions than the prospect of good. John Locke quotes Words -- so innocent and powerless as they are, as standing in a dictionary, how potent for good and evil they become in the hands of one who knows how to combine them. Nathaniel Hawthorne quotes People are afraid of themselves, of their own reality; their feelings most of all. People talk about how great love is, but that's bullshit. Love hurts. Feelings are disturbing. People are taught that pain is evil and dangerous. How can they deal with love if they're afraid to feel? Pain is meant to wake us up. People try to hide their pain. But they're wrong. Pain is something to carry, like a radio. You feel your strength in the experience of pain. It's all in how you carry it. That's what matters. Pain is a feeling. Your feelings are a part of you. Your own reality. If you feel ashamed of them, and hide them, you're letting society destroy your reality. You should stand up for your right to feel your pain. Jim Morrison quotes An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind. Buddha quotes Good courage in a bad affair is half of the evil overcome. Titus Maccius Plautus quotes It must be that evil communications corrupt good dispositions. Menander of Athens quotes The fear of the LORD tendeth to life: and he that hath it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil (Proverbs 19:23). The Bible quotes See, I have set before thee this day life and good, and death and evil (Deuteronomy 30:15). The Bible quotes Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. (1 Corinthians 13:4-7) The Bible quotes |
