Possessions Quotes
Showing: 21 - 25 Possessions Quotes of 25
Don't let your possessions possess you.
And keep as few things as possible, so that you don't have to fear for them. Give them up without a struggle-because otherwise the humiliation will poison your heart. They will take them away from you in a fight, and trying to hold onto your property will only leave you with a bloodied mouth ... But by owning things and trembling about their fate aren't you forfeiting the rare opportunity of observing and understanding?
... people don't know what they are striving for. They waste themselves in senseless thrashing around for the sake of a handful of goods and die without realizing their spiritual wealth.
The bird in a forest can perch but on one bough, And this should be the wise man's pattern.
You can't have everything. Where would you put it?
