We need somebody who's got the heart, the empathy to recognize what it's like to be a young teenage mom, the empathy to understand what it's like to be poor, or African-American, or gay, or disabled, or old - and that's the criterion by which I'll be selecting my judges.
Barack ObamaOur errors are surely not such awfully solemn things. In a world where we are so certain to incur them in spite of all our caution a certain lightness of heart seems healthier than this excessive nervousness on their behalf.
William JamesNon-violence, which is the quality of the heart, cannot come by an appeal to the brain.
Mahatma GandhiHallow the body as a temple to comeliness and sanctify the heart as a sacrifice to love, love recompenses the adorers.
Kahlil GibranIdeas of superiority and inferiority arise only in a heart corrupted by egoism. If someone argues that he is higher or his religion is holier it proves that he has missed the significance of his faith.
Sai BabaThe man of life upright has a guiltless heart free from all dishonest deeds or thought of vanity.
Thomas CarlyleAnother point, you desire that I should come to your houses, you pray to Me to do so you grieve when I do not come, you start reviling yourself that you are poorer than others, that you are spiritually underdeveloped perhaps and so on. I have no place in My heart for such distinctions and differences.
Sai BabaBy Forbearance you cultivate Love. You have come today to your own home. This is your home, not Mine. My home is your heart. So do not try to have your lunch elsewhere but in your home where you get this day food consecrated by Me the Prasad.
