“It's the most precious thing...to know absolutely where you belong. There's a whole emotional wrapping-around-of-you-here. You see the same rock, tree, road, clouds, sun – you develop a nice kind of intimacy with the world around you. To be intimate is to grow, to learn... [it] is absolutely fulfilling. Intimacy, that's my magic word for why I live here.”
Tessie Naranjo
“Even one who by his qualities appears to be all knowing suffers without patronage; the gem, though precious, requires a gold setting.”
Chanakya
“I have three precious things which I hold fast and prize. The first is gentleness; the second is frugality; the third is humility, which keeps me from putting myself before others. Be gentle and you can be bold; be frugal and you can be liberal; avoid putting yourself before others and you can become a leader among men.”
Lao Tzu
“Nothing is more difficult, and therefore more precious, than to be able to decide.”
Napoleon Bonaparte
“The most precious things in speech are pauses”
Ralph Richardson
