Burden
If your strength is small, don't
carry heavy burdens. If your words are
worthless, don't give advice.
?Chinese Proverb
A sacred burden is this life ye bear:
Look on it, lift it, bear it solemnly,
Stand up and walk beneath it steadfastly.
Fail not for sorrow, falter not for sin,
But onward, upward, till the goal ye win.
?Frances Anne Kemble
He who is of a calm and happy nature
will hardly feel the pressure of age,
but to him who is of an opposite disposition,
youth and age are equally a burden.
?Plato
Nuclear waste is a heavy burden
to lay on our children and their
children and their children's children
and their children's children's children
and their children's
children's children's children...
?Rufina M. Laws
I have reached zero tolerance
for the cruelty against our animal
brothers. If we are to nuture our
culture, let?s begin with the animals
who have been nothing but our
beasts of burden for so long.
?Riki Rockett
Forgiveness is primarily for
our own sake, so that we no longer
carry the burden of resentment.
But to forgive does not mean
we will allow injustice again.
?Jack Kornfield
Anyone can carry his burden,
however heavy, until nightfall.
Anyone can do his work,
however hard, for one day.
Anyone can live sweetly,
patiently, lovingly, purely,
until the sun goes down. And this
is all that life really means.
?Robert Louis Stevenson
