Thomas Merton Quotes

What Was Standing In My Way Was My Own Self-awareness. If I Can Begin This Fasting Of The Heart, Self-awareness Will Vanish. Then I Will Be Free From Limitation And Preoccupation I Is That What You Mean?" "Yes," Said Confucius, "that's It! If You Can Do This, You Will Be Able To Go Among Men In Their World Without Upsetting Them. You Will Not Enter Into Conflict With Their Ideal Image Of Themselves. If They Will Listen, Sing Them A Song. If Not, Keep Silent. Don't Try To Break Down Their Door. Don't Try Out New Medicines On Them. Just Be There Among Them, Because There Is Nothing Else For You To Be But One Of Them. Then You May Have Success!
