Today's Quote Wednesday, June 18, 2025 on mind

The wise do not rush to close the circle: they observe the question and let time answer. For not everything in a hurry knows where it's going . . . Watch the ant and its diligent work: it knows that every crumb has its worth. So should you: do not despise what is small, nor rush what is being born. The calm step knows the path, and sometimes, it is silence that brings the answers words have lost.
