Sigal Samuel > Quotes

“You think, because you are sitting in a tree and it is raining and you have not eaten and you have not slept, that you are uncomfortable? You are following a clear path, and that is comfortable!”
― Sigal Samuel, The Mystics of Mile End

“We are each given at birth a finite number or words, stored in the four chambers of our hearts. If we use them well, we may live to a ripe old age. The foolish among us speak often and die young. The wise among us speak seldom and die old. The wisest among us never speak a single word. They guard their words as carefully as if they were precious stones. They know that there is nothing better for the body than silence. The wisest of the royal subjects live forever.”
― Sigal Samuel, The Mystics of Mile End
