“I'm convinced that the man who has learned to meditate upon the Lord will be able to run on his feet and walk in his spirit. Although he may be hurried by his vocation, that's not the issue. The issue is how fast his spirit is going. To slow it down takes a period of time.”
Charles Stanley
“The more man meditates upon good thoughts, the better will be his world and the world at large.”
Confucius
“An unschooled man who knows how to meditate upon the Lord has learned far more than the man with the highest education who does not know how to meditate.”
“The more I read, the more I meditate; and the more I acquire, the more I am enabled to affirm that I know nothing”
Voltaire
“Reading makes a full man, meditation a profound man, discourse a clear man.”
Benjamin Franklin
“The more intense the nature of a man, the more readily will he find meditation, and the more successfully will he practice it.”
James Allen
“The man whose whole activity is diverted to inner meditation becomes insensible to all his surroundings. If he loves, it is not to give himself, to blend in fecund union with another being, but to meditate on his love. His passions are mere appearances, being sterile. They are dissipated in futile imaginings, producing nothing external to themselves.”
Emile Durkheim
