Quotes about wonder (3510 quotes, page 36)

“I spoke the other day to the art historian Vanni Scheiwiler who publishes in Milan. But Signor Scheiwiler is pessimistic; he says that under the influence of the new conformism the city, after all the cultural centre of Italy, has been undergoing a decline in intellectual vitality. Anyone who comes up with something that does not fit in with the line is promptly put down by being called a Fascist. The word Fascist is reported so often that one wonders whether it hasn’t lost all meaning! This reminded me of what Ignazio Silone said in 1945 soon after he returned to Italy from his Zurich exile: “The fascism of tomorrow will never say ‘I am Facism’. It will say: ‘I am anti-Facism’.””

“God talks to you through your soul, not through your mind. And yes, you can learn to tell the difference. This is called discernment. Be judicious. Give everything the “tummy test.” Your stomach will know when something is true. Ever notice that? The tummy knows what the mind can only wonder about.”

Neale Donald Walsch (1943) American writer

“Learn to love yourself a 100% by reconnecting back to Mother Nature. The reason why there is so much chaos going on is because we have disrespected our mother. What's happened now is that we are killing the one who is giving us life. We have to realize the greatness of nature. Bob Marley tried to warn you to see that in this concrete jungle, many of us are living in reverse. When you live in reverse L-I-V-E, it becomes evil…E-V-I-L. We have to see that just by letting go, it frees you…it does wonders.”

“There are special, rare people who you do not meet by chance, but arrive as a gift from heaven. They reach out to you to encourage you, to be there for you in fragile moments, in the instants when the world seems to collapse on you. These people are part of that thin space of life, defined wonder.”

Prevale (1983) Italian DJ and producer

Original: Esistono persone speciali, rare, che non si incontrano per caso, ma che arrivano come un dono dal cielo. Ti raggiungono per incoraggiarti, per esserti accanto nei momenti di fragilità, negli istanti in cui il mondo sembra crollarti addosso. Queste persone fanno parte di quel sottile spazio di vita, definito meraviglia.

Prevale (1983) Italian DJ and producer

Original: Prestiamo troppa attenzione agli eventi negativi che ci accadono. È essenziale pensare positivamente, soprattutto nei momenti di fragilità, la vita può riservarci all'improvviso qualcosa di sorprendentemente meraviglioso.
