“Only humility will help us grow. The feeling of I and mine obstructs any possibility of inner growth.”
“In times of tragedies, our duty is to lend a helping hand to those in grief and thus light lamps of kindness and compassion.”
“When we feel love and kindness toward others, it not only makes others feel loved and cared for, but it helps us also to develop inner happiness and peace.”
“GROWTH - It is not for me or for you, it is for US. When we grow, it literally means that the world grows with us and for us. Let us keep growing.”
“We need to recognize and acknowledge angry feelings. It will take humility to do this, but if we will get on our knees and ask Heavenly Father for a feeling of forgiveness, He will help us. …Only as we rid ourselves of hatred and bitterness can the Lord put comfort into our hearts.”
“There’s a certain amount of humility that is attached to wonder, and a certain amount of pride attached to knowledge and I think the moment you say ‘we know beyond a shadow of a doubt this exists’, you can’t have faith that it exists. Faith is no longer possible. So faith is only possible when doubt is possible. Faith is only possible when humility and wonder is possible. And I feel like the musical world of humility and wonder is a much wider door to enter into than the narrow confines of epistemology and things like knowledge and these really narrow boxes. That’s kind of where our songs are… [those are] the worlds our songs are trying to explore.”
“If we will not learn to eat the only food that the universe grows-the only food that any possible universe ever can grow-then we must starve eternally.”
