King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies

King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies
Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.

The Truth about Truth

"Sincerity is not a test of truth.
We must not make this mistake: He must be right; he's so sincere.
Because, it is possible to be sincerely wrong.
We can only judge truth by truth and sincerity by sincerity."

"There is nothing wrong with affirmations,
provided what you are affirming is the truth.
If you are broke, for example, the best thing to affirm is, 'I'm broke!'"

"Very few of us are authorities on the truth.
About the closest that any of us can get is what we hope is the truth or what we think is the truth.
That's why the best approach to truth is probably to say, 'It seems to me...'"
- Jim Rohn
