"Aphorisms Are the Sushi of Literature" https://www.escapeintolife.com/poetry/yahia-lababidi/

Pandemics are also tests of emotional intelligence.

The paradox of success in life is to be aware of your vices, not your virtues.

Radical humility is to entertain the possibility that our worst detractors might be right about us.

Only love can heal the wounds of love.

No respite in the garden without, first, struggle in the wilderness.

The master and the novice are not permitted the same mistakes.

Inspiration speaks in fits and starts—revealing to us only what is necessary, at the time.

To the humble spirit, criticism is cause for self-contemplation.

Wisdom is recovered innocence.

Conversation: an encounter between all that we know and what we are about to discover.

Counting on large miracles prevents us from recognizing the countless small ones, daily, granted.

Unattended temples are reclaimed by wilderness.

One gauge of a person’s intelligence (and interestingness) is their comfort level living with Mystery.

To transcend Time, transcend Self.

Aphorisms are the sushi of literature.

Silence is, sometimes, the charitable answer.

Being frightened by your shadow and making peace with it are not mutually exclusive.

True solitude is not lonely, it is companionable.

Vastness: our only way out of this narrow-hearted mess…
