A person that started in to carry a cat home by the tail was getting knowledge that was always going to be useful to him, and warn't ever going to grow dim or doubtful.
Mark TwainNever judge someone
By the way he looks
Or a book by the way it's covered;
For inside those tattered pages,
There's a lot to be discovered

Better be wise by the misfortunes of others than by your own.

In India, I was living in a little hut, about six feet by seven feet. It had a canvas flap instead of a door. I was sitting on my bed meditating, and a cat wandered in and plopped down on my lap. I took the cat and tossed it out the door. Ten seconds later it was back on my lap. We got into a sort of dance, this cat and I...I tossed it out because I was trying to meditate, to get enlightened. But the cat kept returning. I was getting more and more irritated, more and more annoyed with the persistence of the cat. Finally, after about a half-hour of this coming in and tossing out, I had to surrender. There was nothing else to do. There was no way to block off the door. I sat there, the cat came back in, and it got on my lap. But I did not do anything. I just let go. Thirty seconds later the cat got up and walked out. So, you see, our teachers come in many forms.

Stephen CosgroveTear down your border
of thicket and vine
creating a free world,

Short is short
and Tall is Tall
You are what you are
That is All!
A friend cannot be owned
That is plain to see
Friendships must be shared,
Just like our friend, Ruby
When you're feeling lonely
and no one is around
Remember to look inside yourself
and a best friend will be found

You may see all that is around you
But you may feel nothing at all.
So try and close your eyes so tight
And listen to the night time fall.
