Quotes

"When a huge and hazardous iceberg is spotted in the Atlantic Ocean, it is carefully charted and followed by patrol boats. When the iceberg eventually drifts into warm waters, it disappears, leaving the patrol with no more work to do. This is how our inner work leads to a healthy lack of concern for ourselves. By carefully following a worry or a disappointment, we see it drift into the warm waters of our expanded understanding, where it disappears." -Vernon Howard

Isn’t this a beautiful quote? Quotes from various sources are used throughout our School. Angels do not care who said what. If it works, they will use it. Angels are never envious when a human being says something in the perfect way, perhaps more perfectly than they themselves could have said it. Angels do not claim ownership for the words that come through them, and so they do not assign ownership to the words of others. Angels know that everything comes from, belongs, and returns to the same Source. Of course, in the material world of human beings, there are rules. Copyright laws must be honored. Quotes must be acknowledged.

Everything has already been said, anyway, in one way or another. You have already heard many of the concepts in these lessons. Truth is always old and always new. Truth is also relative and elusive. Our understanding of truth changes as we do.
