“O maior milagre que pode ocorrer neste mundo é o perdão; é abrir o coração e amar de forma desinteressada. Isso é milagre.”

“The greatest miracle that can happen in this world is forgiveness. It opens up your heart and allows you to love selflessly. This is a miracle.”

JMG HomoQuotable - Andrew Sullivan

"I never believed this would happen in my lifetime when I wrote my first several TNR essays and then my book, Virtually Normal, and then the anthology and the hundreds and hundreds of talks and lectures and talk-shows and call-ins and blog-posts and articles in the 1990s and 2000s. I thought the book, at least, would be something I would have to leave behind me – secure in the knowledge that its arguments were, in fact, logically irrefutable, and would endure past my own death, at least somewhere. I never for a millisecond thought I would live to be married myself. Or that it would be possible for everyone, everyone in America. But it has come to pass. All of it. In one fell, final swoop. Know hope." - Andrew Sullivan, returning to his blog to spike the ball.

“Chegou o momento de realizarmos uma revolução na consciência. Isso é possível através do comprometimento com o silêncio. O silêncio evoca a consciência, e a consciência evoca a transformação. A prática de um único minuto em silêncio por dia é capaz de iniciar a maior revolução que o planeta já viu.”

“The time has come to revolutionize our awareness. This is possible through our commitment to cultivating silence. Silence brings awareness, and awareness evokes transformation. The practice of being in silence for just one minute a day could spark the greatest revolution the planet has ever seen.”

Making Wisdom Possible

As the reordering of our life, brought about by moral training, creates the environment for meditation, the stillness of mind created by meditation will make possible the examination of reality that is the hallmark of wisdom. -  Lama Jampa Thaye, "Living by Meditation Alone"
