Love makes us similar, it creates equality, it breaks down walls and eliminates distances. God did this with us.
Pope FrancisRead
Love Is the Treasure The temple of love is not love itself; True love is the treasure, Not the walls about it. Do not admire the decoration, But involve yourself in the essence, The perfume that invades and touches you- The beginning and the end. Discovered, this replaces all else, The apparent and the unknowable. Time and space are slaves to this presence.
RumiRead
Modesty is a learned affectation. And as soon as life slams the modest person against the wall, that modesty drops.

You know... that a blank wall is an apalling thing to look at... _x000D_ The wall of a museum - a canvas - a piece of film - or a guy sitting in front of a typewriter. Then, you start out to do something - that vague thing called creation. The beginning strikes awe within you.

Thomas MoreRead
Let's build bridges, not walls.
Martin Luther King, Jr.Read
Meditation is a deliberate attempt to pierce into the higher states of consciousness and finally go beyond it. The art of meditation is the art of shifting the focus of attention to ever subtler levels, without losing one's grip on the levels left behind. (...) Save all your energies and time for breaking the wall your mind had built around you. Believe me, you will not regret.
Sri Nisargadatta MaharajRead
He's arm'd without that's innocent within; _x000D_ Be this thy Screen, and this thy Wall of Brass.
HoraceRead
Sunlight fell upon the wall; the wall received a borrowed splendor. Why set your heart on a piece of earth, O simple one? Seek out the source which shines forever.
RumiRead

Eleanor RooseveltRead
I was fighting a small fight of my own which wasn't leading _x000D_ anywhere-but like a man with a bent spoon trying to dig through a cement wall I knew that a small fight was better than quitting: it _x000D_ kept the heart alive.
Charles BukowskiRead
As we willingly enter each place of fear, each place of deficiency and insecurity in ourselves, we will discover that its walls are made of untruths, of old images of ourselves, of ancient fears, of false ideas of what is pure and what is not.
Jack KornfieldRead

Deepak ChopraRead
O what hardness of heart mayst thou see in every corner whither thou goest, and where thou preachest, most part being as unconcerned as the very stones of the wall; and say what thou wilt, either by setting before them alluring promises or dreadful threatenings, yet people are hardened against both, none relenting for what they have done, or concerned about it.
Thomas BostonRead
A house is made with walls and beams; a home is built with love and dreams.
Ralph Waldo EmersonRead
I pictured a low timber house with a shingled roof, caulked against storms, with blazing log fires inside and the walls lined with all the best books, somewhere to live when the rest of the world blew up.
Bruce ChatwinRead
