“We are the breakers of our own hearts”

“How much we give to other hearts our tone,
And judge of others' feelings by our own!”

“Our own brain, our own heart is our temple; the philosophy is kindness.”

“It's such a shame that we know so little about our own country, that we can't find it in our hearts to love our own kind. Instead we admire those who show our country disrespect and betray its people.”

“History is not just facts and events. History is also a pain in the heart and we repeat history until we are able to make another's pain in the heart our own.”

“History is not just facts and events. History is also a pain in the heart and we repeat history until we are able to make another’s pain in the heart our own.”

“It's not the gods
But our own hearts
We need to fear.
The evil starts
Against all odds
Not there but here.”

“Where can we go to find God if we cannot see Him in our own hearts and in every living being?”

“Tis strange how the heart can create
Or colour from itself its fate;
We make ourselves our own distress,
We are ourselves our happiness.”

“Ah, my friends, we must look out and around to see what God is like. It is when we persist in turning our eyes inward, and prying curiously over our own imperfections, that we learn to make God after our own image, and fancy that our own darkness and hardness of heart are the patterns of His light and love.”
