Respect Quotes
-
There are, indeed, two forms of discontent: one laborious, the other indolent and complaining. We respect the man of laborious desire, but let us not suppose that his restlessness is peace, or his ambition meekness.

Neither covetous men, nor the grave, can inherit anything; they can but consume. Only contentment can possess.

All these his work contains and we may turn to his work with gratitude, appreciation and great respect.

Although I remain uncertain about God or any particular religion, I believe in karma. What goes around, comes around. How you live your life, the respect that you give others and the mountain, and how you treat people in general will come back to you in kindred fashion.

And sometime down the road, you may need to make a big withdrawal.
