“True liberty cannot be attained if one lives in fear. Fear exists if one does not nourish oneself with inner peace.”
Jonathan Chen
“Listen to others with an open mind. Normally, that leads to a pleasant conversation.”
“In a good paining, each stroke is uniquely required yet it relates to all others in forming the total beauty”
“Paradise is always there for those who are grateful. Because for them, everything is beautiful.”
“Living together as brothers does not mean we don't argue with each other. It does mean we love each other.”
“One whose auditory sense has been accustomed to being comfortable with one kind tune misses out the spectacularity of the symphony.”
“Only when we develop a genuine sense of love and respect towards all members of our human family, will we be able to sustain a true gratitude towards all beings in nature. That’s when not only the world is peaceful, but also enchanting. Remember, we are all members of our human family, and our human family is a member of the bigger family of nature.”
“Everything in nature has its purpose in the grand desideratum of the circle of life. That purpose may not seem obvious to be directly beneficial to us humans. That does not warrant us the rights to destroy it. We must come to the realization that destroying any part of the structure will lead to the collapse of the structure itself.”
“The most coward act in the world is to use violence to suppress peace and obstruct justice. Peace and justice cannot prevail if the free world continues to tolerate such coward acts.”
“We are the same, and we are different. We are the same because we all are members of the same human family. We are different because each of us is unique. Love each other because we are brothers and sisters. Respect the individual liberty of each other because we all are created equal and are endowed with basic human rights. That’s the spirit of Diversity. From this point on, when we say Diversity, we mean the interweaving of Love and Freedom.”
