Criss Jami

To share your weakness is to make yourself vulnerable; to make yourself vulnerable is to show your strength.

When a man is penalized for honesty he learns to lie.

Closed in a room, my imagination becomes the universe, and the rest of the world is missing out.

The biggest challenge after success is shutting up about it.

Listen to God with a broken heart. He is not only the doctor who mends it, but also the father who wipes away the tears.

If a man cannot understand the beauty of life, it is probably because life never understood the beauty in him.

Man is not, by nature, deserving of all that he wants. When we think that we are automatically entitled to something, that is when we start walking all over others to get it.

If love is blind, then maybe a blind person that loves has a greater understanding of it.

A lonely day is God's way of saying that he wants to spend some quality time with you.

When you're the only sane person, you look like the only insane person.

As long as I am breathing, in my eyes, I am just beginning.

The harder you fall, the heavier your heart; the heavier your heart, the stronger you climb; the stronger you climb, the higher your pedestal.

The reality of loving God is loving him like he's a Superhero who actually saved you from stuff rather than a Santa Claus who merely gave you some stuff.

Like crying wolf, if you keep looking for sympathy as a justification for your actions, you will someday be left standing alone when you really need help.

Love is as simple as the absence of self given to another. God, when invited, fills the void of any unrequited love; hence loving is how one is drawn closer to God no matter its most horrific repercussions.
