“Our purpose in life is to grow in wisdom and in love.”

“Intuition is our inner teacher, our inner source of love, truth and wisdom, in life.”

“It is not our difficulties or our suffering alone that makes us wise. It is what we add to them--patience, perseverance, compassion, courage, love. From this combination, our priceless pearls of wisdom grow.”

“I knew that was really the only purpose of life: to be our self, live our truth, and be the love that we are.”

“It is in the whole process of meeting and solving problems that life has meaning. Problems are the cutting edge that distinguishes between success and failure. Problems call forth our courage and our wisdom; indeed, they create our courage and our wisdom. It is only because of problems that we grow mentally and spiritually. It is through the pain of confronting and resolving problems that we learn.”

“The purpose of learning is growth, and our minds, unlike our bodies, can continue growing as we continue to live.”
