People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in,
their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.
-Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
-Eleanor Roosevelt
Even on the highest throne in the world, we are still sitting on our ass.
Michel de Montaigne (1533 - 1592)
The heart has its reasons that reason knows nothing of.
Blaise Pascal, Pensées, 1670
Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you'd have preferred to talk.

The photos are so beautiful as are the quotes.
Love the Eleanor Roosevelt one...No one can make you feel inferior without your consent. So true. I make that mistake sometimes!

Our reasoning capabilites are based on our knowledge and our censored knowledge creates stories that we believe to be true. Everything but wisdom is fiction. And wisdom comes from an open heart.
The quote by Kubler Ross is so wonderful. Thank you for posting the lovely photos too....
thanks for sharing.
These are all VERY beautiful pictures! WOW! And that first quote! I really want to put it on my blog somewhere. But, I won't, because I know that you found it! I just love it so, so much!
I do so appreciate your lovely photographs and words of wisdom. Methinks my fav today is the 3rd one with the long shadows but they're all wonderful. Methinks it's been a while since you've visited Sacred Ruminations. The way your blog is set up, I don't get to choose which of my Blogger links to leave any more so I try to remember occasionally to leave a link like this. Hope you're having a lovely weekend. Thanks for all your supportive comments at Small Reflections and Happily Retired Gal ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
I love the photo shots AND the quotes.

I love all the photos, but the one above the Eleanor Roosevelt quote is my favourite. I also happen to really like that quote. Well done.
