Meister Eckhart Quotes
The everlasting and paternal wisdom saith, 'Whoso heareth Me is not ashamed.' If he is ashamed of anything he is ashamed of being ashamed. Whoso worketh in Me sineth not. Whoso confesseth Me and feareth Me, shall have eternal life. Whoso will hear the wisdom of the Father must dwell deep, and abide at home, and be at unity with himself.
