It is the heart

It is the heart that makes a man rich. He is rich according to what he is, not according to what he has.

God is

God is in truth the whole universe: what was, what is, and what beyond shall ever be...

and hear with our hearts.

To put the world in order

"To put the world in order, we must first put the nation in order; to put the nation in order, we must put the family in order; to put the family in order, we must cultivate our personal life; and to cultivate our personal life, we must first set our hearts right."

The forgiving heart

"The forgiving heart is capable of anything.
I believe that deeply.
And that’s where in terms of becoming an empowered individual....
when you get to the point where you realize you can look at someone and say
“I love myself enough -
not in a schmaltzy garbage sense, Hallmark stuff,
I’m talking respect myself -
I respect my life-force enough to no longer waste it."

~ Caroline Myss

Your heart

Your heart is the browser.
The pathways are the search engine,
The universe is the real Internet,
And there are many addresses to the Beloved,
whose server is always online.

~Neil Douglas-Klotz

All

All that is in the heart is written in the face.

A warrior chooses a path with heart, any path with heart, and follows it; and then he rejoices and laughs. He knows because he sees that his life will be over altogether too soon. He sees that nothing is more important than anything else.
