The Three Most Difficult Things

The three most difficult things for a human being are not physical feats or intellectual achievements. They are, first, returning love for hate; second, including the excluded; third, admitting that you are wrong.

— Anthony de Mello, Awareness  <link>

Only in silence the word,
only in dark the light,
only in dying life:
bright the hawk’s flight
on the empty sky.

— Ursula K. LeGuin  <link>
