"When you've seen beyond yourself, then you may find, peace of mind is waiting there"
- George Harrison
About this Quote
This quote by George Harrison speaks with the concept of looking beyond oneself and one's own perspective. It recommends that when we are able to step beyond our own limited view of the world, we can find a sense of peace and satisfaction. This comfort is not something that can be discovered in product ownerships or external sources, but rather within ourselves. It is only when we have the ability to look beyond our own individual needs and desires that we can discover a sense of inner peace. This quote encourages us to take a step back and take a look at the larger photo, to acknowledge that our own specific struggles are just a little part of the bigger world. By doing so, we can discover a sense of peace and contentment that is not based on external elements.
"When the principles that run against your deepest convictions begin to win the day, then the battle is your calling, and peace has become sin. You must at the price of dearest peace lay your convictions bare before friend and enemy with all the fire of your faith"
