John Donne Quotes

One thought includes all thought, in the sense that a grain of sand includes the universe.

Nothing is part of everything.

We divide ourselves up into spirit and human, but essentially we are all a part of the same world.

Everybody comes from the same source. If you hate another human being, you're hating part of yourself.

Every part is disposed to unite with the whole, that it may thereby escape from its own incompleteness.

Line in Nature is not found; Unit and Universe are round.

We are the universe pretending to be individuals.

So long as human beings stay human, death and life are the same thing.

You cannot conceive the many without the one.

It is impossible to conceive of many without one.

I can't tell one from the other:I find you or you find me?There was a time before we were born If someone asks, this is where I'll be.

What we see as death, empty space, or nothingness is only the trough between the crests of this endlessly waving ocean. It is all part of the illusion that there should seem to be something to be gained in the future, and that there is an urgent necessity to go on and on until we get it. Yet just as there is no time but the present, and no one except the all-and-everything, there is never anything to be gained - though the zest of the game is to pretend that there is.

The universe is a space bigger than all of us we are part of.

What does it mean that I am in this endless universe, thinking that I'm a man sitting under the stars on the terrace of the earth, but actually empty and awake throughout the emptiness and awakedness of everything? It means that I'm empty and awake, that I know I'm empty and awake, and that there's no difference between me and anything else.

One is necessary, one is a piece of fate, one belongs to the whole, one is the whole - there exists nothing which could judge, measure, compare, condemn our being, for that would be to judge, measure, compare, condemn the whole...But nothing exists apart from the whole!

Everything comes from everything, and everything is made out of everything, and everything returns into everything.

Love is the only thing that counts. Love is what keeps the star and the human beings and the world turning around. Love is the force that binds the whole universe together.

I have no other self than the totality of the things of which I am aware.

Life is one indivisible whole.

This world is a vast unbroken totality, a deep solidarity joins its contrary powers.

If you are a poet, you will see clearly that there is a cloud floating in this sheet of paper? ?To be? is to inter-be. We cannot just be by ourselves alone. We have to inter-be with every other thing. This sheet of paper is, because everything else is.

All things in this vast universe exist in you, with you, and for you.

One included all, and all were contained in one.
