Man's main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. the most important product of his effort is his own personality. one can judge objectively to what extent a person has succeeded in his task, to what degree he has realized his potentialities. if he has failed in his task, one can recognize this failure and judge it for what it is - a moral failure.
Men Giving Judging
Carefully watch your thoughts, for they become your words. manage and watch your words, for they will become your actions. consider and judge your actions, for they have become your habits. acknowledge and watch your habits, for they shall become your values. understand and embrace your values, for they become your destiny.

Whether you know it or not, one of the most important relationships in your life is with your soul. will you be kind and loving to your soul, or will you be harsh and difficult? many of us unknowingly damage our souls with our negative attitudes and actions or by simple neglect. by making the relationship with your soul an important part of your life, however, by honoring it in your daily routine, you give your life greater meaning and substance. use your experiences-all of them-as opportunities to nourish your soul! copyright: elisabeth kubler-ross family limited partnership.

Similar Quotes
Now, since our condition accommodates things to itself, and transforms them according to itself, we no longer know things in their reality; for nothing comes to us that is not altered and falsified by our senses. when the compass, the square, and the rule are untrue, all the calculations drawn from them, all the buildings erected by their measure, are of necessity also defective and out of plumb. the uncertainty of our senses renders uncertain everything that they produce.

I look upon phrenology as the guide to philosophy and the handmaid of christianity. whoever disseminates true phrenology is a public benefactor.

Those who advocate common usage in philosophy sometimes speak in a manner that suggests the mystique of the 'common man.'
