We are so addicted, either to materialism or to transcending material reality, that we don’t see God right in front of us, in the beggar, the starving child, the brokenhearted woman; in our friend; in the cat; in the flea.

And if the desertification of the land just below the Sahel continues, then waters such as the one in Darfur, Sudan partially caused by the desert encroaching on the nomads in the north, which in turn pushed them southward toward the Fur people, will intensify and spread. — Tim Marshall

For some are in the habit of carrying about the name in wicked guile, while they still practice things unworthy of God. You must flee these as you would wild beasts.

P. Blavatsky
