Yerlan Konuspayev Quotes & Sayings

Spirituality is best manifested on the ground, not in the air. Rapturous day-dreams, flights of heavenly fancy, longings to see the Invisible, are less expensive and less expressive than the plain doing of duty.

Spirituality is seeing God in common things, and showing God in common tasks. — Maltbie Davenport Babcock

If I don't run for a few days, I feel like my insides are dirty. The run kind of scrubs my veins and arteries, and then all starts to feel right with the world.
