Inner Mending Quotes

We are all made up of the heart broken or the heart breakers and sometimes you break your own heart for the pain you caused to someone else. The only way to mend is to open your heart and swim deep into the waters of forgiveness, pacifying like a band aid to your heart. ~ Christine Evangelou

You are more important than you think you are, you are braver, you are more lovable and smarter than you think you are. Upgrade what you think! ~ Happy Goddessa

Follow your inner moonlight; don't hide the madness. ~ Allen Ginsberg

I believe Truth is like God's fingerprint on our soul. I'm convinced we're created with an intrinsic capacity to feel it. I've discovered that 'finding' Truth is not purely an intellectual or analytical exercise. It's a feeling, a shiver of knowing. For me it's like something tickling the whiskers of my soul, letting me know I just brushed up against it. ~ Rebecca Rose

It is within the Soul of every one of us, where the holy Temple is built, the Temple, through which the Mind of the Universe talks to us by sending prophetic dreams to us, and controlling our mind via the Inner Voice. ~ Zhiglov Valeriy

There is no poetic art like praying. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita

Though the words of the great saints appear in a hundred different forms, since God is one and the Way is one, how can their words be different? Though their teachings appear to contradict, their meaning is one. Separation exists in their outward form only; in inner purpose they all agree. ~ Rumi

You're not what you do. You are your intentions. ~ Kiyo Giaozhi

Once i have burnt the bridge, there is no going back. I wouldn't have let go if there was still something to hold onto, you see the thing is, very few act right but all expect you to stay.
Above all, choose yourself and put yourself first always. ~ Nikki Rowe

People will ask you the question 'how is life treating you?' But my question is 'how are you treating life?' On that your happiness rests ~ Rasheed Ogunlaru

My poor little child
Karin Boye
My poor child, so afraid of the dark,
who has met ghosts of another kind,
who always among those clad in white
glimpses those with evil faces,
now let me sing you gentle songs,
from fright they free, from force and cramp.
Of the evil they ask no repentance.
Of the good they ask not for battle.
See, you must know, that all that lives
is deep inside of equal kind.
Like trees and herbs it seeks to grow -
pulled forward by its inner laws.
And trees may fall and flowers wilt
and branches break, their power lost,
still the dream remains - awaits the call -
in every living drop of sap. (205) ~ Linda Olsson

It's not about getting what you want. It's about experiencing what you really need by becoming more. ~ Tony Robbins

I think that painting relates very neatly to inner travel and the exploration of inner worlds. With painting, I always get the impression that you're sort of entering into a shared space. ~ Joe Bradley

The relentless onslaught of this stupefying imagery that pounds our inner landscapes flat, a carpet-bombing of the mind. The language of the world, that overwhelms us. ~ Alan Moore

If we live in our oneness-heart, we will feel the essence of all religions, which is love of God. But if we live in the mind, we will only try to separate one religion from another and see how their ideologies differ. It is the heart that can have a true intuitive understanding of the height and breadth of all religions. It is the heart that sees and feels the inner harmony and oneness of all religions. ~ Sri Chinmoy

The best way to find inner peace is the practice in forbearance. ~ Kristian Goldmund Aumann

Despair is the state in which anxiety and restlessness are immanent to existence. Nobody in despair suffers from "problems", but from his own inner torment and fire. It's a pity that nothing can be solved in this world. Yet there never was and here never will be anyone who would commit suicide for this reason. So much for the power that intellectual anxiety has over the total anxiety of our being! That is why I prefer the dramatic life, consumed by inner fires and tortured by destiny, to the intellectual, caught up in abstractions which do not engage the essence of our subjectivity. I despise the absence of risks, madness and passion in abstract thinking. How fertile live, passionate thinking is! Lyricism feeds it like blood pumped into the heart! ~ Emil M. Cioran

Richard nodded, then fumbled around in the purse at his belt. He took her hand and slid a ring onto her finger. "I meant to give you this," he said. "Before, ah, the tidings came . . ." "Oh," she said, looking down, "Richard, it's beautiful - " "Aye, and so are you." And with that and a firm brush of his lips across hers, he was gone. Jessica stood in the inner bailey of Robin of Artane's courtyard and stared down at what she assumed was her wedding ring. ~ Lynn Kurland

Tisiphone stood silent and helpless in Alicia's mind. It was all she could do to keep Alicia's blind savagery from dragging Megaira under and clouding the lightning-fast reflexes which kept them both alive.
She'd never guessed what she was creating, never imagined the monster she'd spawned. She'd seen the power of Alicia DeVries's mind without recognizing the controls which kept that power in check, and only now had she begun to understand fully what she had done.
She had shattered those controls. The compassion and mercy she'd feared no longer existed, only the red, ravening hunger. Yet terrible as that might be, there was worse. She'd found the hole Alicia had gnawed through the wall about her inner rage, and she couldn't close it. Somehow, without even realizing it was possible, Alicia had reached beyond herself. She'd followed Tisiphone's connection to the Fury's own rage, her own destruction, and made that incalculable power hers as well.
For the first time in millennia, Tisiphone faced another as powerful as herself, a mortal mind which had stolen the power of the Furies themselves, and that power had driven it mad. ~ David Weber

Love knows no bodies, and reaches to everything created like itself. Its total lack of limit is its meaning. It is completely impartial in its giving, encompassing only to preserve and keep complete what it would give. ~ Foundation For Inner Peace

Much of our problem is not, as is often said, that we have failed to get what is in our head down in our heart. Much of what hinders us is that we have had a lot of mistaken theology in our head and it has gotten down into our heart. And it is controlling our inner dynamics so that the head and heart cannot, even with the aid of the Word and the Spirit, pull one another straight. ~ Dallas Willard

Nobody can steal my inner beauty, tranquility, and peace without my consent. ~ Debasish Mridha

Man must have light. He must live in the fierce full constant glare of light, where all shadow will be defined and sharp and unique and personal: the shadow of his own singular rectitude or baseness. All human evils have to come out of obscurity and darkness, where there is nothing to dog man constantly with the shape of his own deformity. ~ William Faulkner

Do not underrate yourself trying to be somebody else. ~ Matshona Dhliwayo

We want to create the purely organic building, boldly emanating its inner laws, free of untruths or ornamentation. ~ Walter Gropius

If you allow the life to happen, by connecting with your inner world, then you don't have to worry about the changes with your perception or the change in the outside world. All you have to do is to follow your inner truth, to reach to your destination. ~ Roshan Sharma

Light has called forth one organ to become its like, and thus the eye is formed by the light and for the light so that the inner light may emerge to meet the outer light. ~ Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Working in the garden gives me something beyond the enjoyment of the senses. It gives me a profound feeling of inner peace. ~ Ruth Stout

The Medicine Man, taking his music with him, is passing quietly into the Great Silence, where the old songs were "Received in Dreams" by "inner-plane communication." ~ Frances Densmore

My faith helps me understand that circumstances don't dictate my happiness, my inner peace. ~ Denzel Washington

Peace is the result of an inner state of harmony. It is not obtained by eliminating anything external, it is inside ourselves that we must find and suppress the causes of war. ~ Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov

All the political, social, and economic improvements, all the technical progress cannot have any regenerating significance, so long as our inner life remains as it is at present. ~ Nikos Kazantzakis

Without inner change there can be no outer change. Without collective change, no change matters. ~ Angel Kyodo Williams

Faith and trust come from an inner ability to believe in something unseen, to expect it to be there without ever having proof that it is. ~ Tara Taylor Quinn

My inner goddess is celebrating her inner bitch ~ E.L. James

Fashioned from the earth, we are souls in clay form. We need to remain in rhythm with our inner clay voice and longing. ~ John O'Donohue

My eyes already touch the sunny hill. Going far ahead of the road I have begun. So we are grasped by what we cannot grasp; it has inner light, even from a distance- and charges us, even if we do not reach it, into something else, which, hardly sensing it, we already are; a gesture waves us on answering our own wave ... but what we feel is the wind in our faces. ~ Rainer Maria Rilke

The path of the seeker is full of pitfalls and temptations, and the seeker must walk it alone with God. I would recommend that you keep your feet on the ground and your thoughts at lofty heights, so that you may attract only good. Concentrate on giving so that you may open yourself to receiving; concentrate on living according to the light you have so that you may open yourself to more light; get as much light as possible through the inner way. ~ Peace Pilgrim

When we inhale, the air comes into the inner world. When we exhale, the air goes out to the outer world. The inner world is limitless, and the outer world is also limitless. We say "inner world" or "outer world" but actually, There is just one whole world. ~ Shunryu Suzuki

I'm trying to learn something about making a balance between the inner life and the outer life. I wouldn't write if I didn't need to be making those discoveries, if I didn't feel the perpetual ignorance of being a human being. ~ Alison Hawthorne Deming

While the government is "studying" and funding and organizing its Big Thought, nothing is being done. But the citizen who is willing to Think Little, and, accepting the discipline of that, to go ahead on his own, is already solving the problem. A man who is trying to live as a neighbor to his neighbors will have a lively and practical understanding of the work of peace and brotherhood, and let there be no mistake about it - he is doing that work ...
A man who is willing to undertake the discipline and the difficulty of mending his own ways is worth more to the conservation movement than a hundred who are insisting merely that the government and the industries mend their ways.
(pg.87, "Think Little") ~ Wendell Berry

If you're fit and healthy and capable of mending a fence or stacking shelves, and you're not doing either of those things, then I say you don't get the right to vote. I don't want someone who's too lazy to get a job making decisions on how this country should be run. ~ Karl Wiggins
