"God turns you from one feeling to another and teaches by means of opposites so that you will have two wings to fly, not one"

"You have forgotten the Onewho doesn't care about ownership,who doesn't try to turn a profitfrom every human exchange."

"God turns you from one feeling to another and teaches by means of opposites so that you will have two wings to fly, not one"

"Knowledge that is acquiredis not like this. Those who have it worry ifaudiences like it or not.It's a bait for popularity.Disputational knowing wants customers.It has no soul...The only real customer is God.Chew quietlyyour sweet sugarcane God-Love, and stayplayfully childish."

"Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations."
