“A wise man was asked, ‘Is there a single word which you can follow throughout all your life?’ And the wise man answered, ‘There is such a word. This is shu.’ And the meaning of this word is, ‘If we do not want certain things to be done to us, we should not do such things to others.'”
Chinese Wisdom, A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 152)
“If you would like to know how to recognize a prophet, look to him who gives you the knowledge of your own heart.”
Persian Wisdom, via A Calendar of Wisdom (Page 136)
“The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in. Let it come in. We think we don’t deserve love, we think if we let it in we’ll become too soft. But a wise man named Levine said it right. He said, ‘Love is the only rational act.'”

Tuesdays With Morrie [Book]
Book Overview: Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it.
For Mitch Albom, that person was Morrie Schwartz, his college professor from nearly twenty years ago.
Maybe, like Mitch, you lost track of this mentor as you made your way, and the insights faded, and the world seemed colder. Wouldn’t you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you, receive wisdom for your busy life today the way you once did when you were younger?
Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man’s life. Knowing he was dying, Morrie visited with Mitch in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final “class”: lessons in how to live.
