Pico Iyer on The Art of Stillness

Enlightening Talks

You don’t learn to walk by following rules. You learn by doing, and by falling over.

Life isn’t about making your day, it’s about making someone else’s.

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

When dealing with people, remember you are not dealing with creatures of logic, but creatures of emotion.

We are kept from our goal, not by obstacles but by a clear path to a lesser goal.

If you obey all the rules, you will miss all the fun.

A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they will never sit in.

The road to success is always under construction.

The road to success is always under construction.

Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.

An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.
