Jiddu Krishnamurti Quote – “To meditate is to transcend time…”

Jiddu Krishnamurti Quote – “A mind that is completely discontented…”

G. I. Gurdjieff Quote – “Such is the nature of man…”
Such is the nature of man, that for your first gift, he prostrates himself; for your second, kisses your hand; for the third, fawns; for the fourth, just nods his head once; for the fifth, becomes too familiar; for the sixth, insults you; and for the seventh, sues you because he was not given enough.

G. I. Gurjieff Quote – “It is only necessary to know a little…”
To know means to know all. Not to know all means not to know. In order to know all, it is only necessary to know a little. But in order to know this little, it is first necessary to know pretty much. G. I. Gurdjieff (1866 – 1949)
G. I. Gurdjieff Quote – “Pay as quickly as possible for one’s arising and individuality…”
