Spirit Quotes

    “The most important thing for a human being is not what is between his or her ears; it is what is in his or her heart.  If the spirit is strong, one can accomplish anything.” ~ Tempu Nakamura, Budo Secrets

      “The healing of the spirit has not been completed until openness to challenge becomes a way of life.” ~ Scott Peck, The Road Less Traveled

        “Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon them from birth through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality others are oblivious to, and so begins their journey of awakening.  Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over the veils of ignorance.” ~ Henri Bergson

          “Real strength is not just a condition of one’s muscle, but a tenderness in one’s spirit.” ~ McCallister Dodds

            “Spirit…has fifty times the strength and staying power of brawn and muscle.” ~ Unknown

              “The spirited horse, which will try to win the race of its own accord, will run ever faster if encouraged.” ~ Publius Ovidius
