There is a path to Here
It is not so clear
With a balance of Vision
and flowing Reality

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
//Albert Einstein

God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change.
The courage to change the things I can.
And the wisdom to know the difference.

My favorite; in regards to the phenomenal world (the world of you, me and everything else), from on of the various upanishads:
'Reality is neither real nor non-real; it is appearance.'

"When Chaliponga is an ordinary day on the job, then you know you're insane." - A friend of mine after having used Ayahuasca with a weak batch of Chaliponga for a prolonged period of time, and then switching over to Mimosa. Perhaps not a spiritual quote, but I found it hilarious 
"I don't know... Christianity is the weird one though, you know, Christianity is such an odd religion, you know. I was raised that way you know and you could just suffer for it. You know, the whole imagine is that, you know, eternal suffering awaits anyone who questions God's infinite love. That's the message, isn't it, that we're brought with. "Believe or die!" "Thank you, forgiving Lord, for all those options!"" - Bill Hicks
"That's what fundamentalism breeds, though, no irony, you see they take word literally, you know... Well, once again, I recommend a healthy dose of Psilocybin Mushrooms. Three weeks ago two of my friends and I went to a ranch in Fredericksburg, Texas, and took what Terence McKenna calls "a heroic dose." Five dried grams. Let me tell you, our third eye was squeegeed quite cleanly. Wow! And I'm glad they're against the law, because you know what happened when I took them? I laid in a field of green grass for four hours, going "My God, I love everything." The heavens parted, God looked down and rained gifts of forgiveness onto my being, healing me on every level, psychically, physically, emotionally. And I realized our true nature is spirit, not body, that we are eternal beings, and God's love is unconditional and there's nothing we can ever do to change that. It is only our illusion that we are separate from God, or that we are alone. In fact, the reality is, we are one with God and he loves us. Now, if that isn't a hazard to this country... Do you see my point? How are we gonna keep building nuclear weapons, you know what I mean? What's gonna happen to the arms industry when we realize we're all one? Hahahahaha! It's gonna fuck up the economy! The economy that's fake anyway! Hahaha! Which would be a real bummer, you know. You can see why the government's cracking down on the idea of experiencing unconditional love." - Bill Hicks

'The truth about the world ... is that anything is possible. Had you not seen it all from birth and thereby bled it of its strangeness it would appear to you for what it is, a hat trick in a medicine show, a fevered dream, a trance bepopulate with chimeras having neither analogue nor precedent, an itinerant carnival, a migratory tentshow whose ultimate destination after many a pitch in many a mudded field is unspeakable and calamitous beyond reckoning.'
'The man who believes that the secrets of the world are forever hidden lives in mystery and fear. Superstition will drag him down. The rain will erode the deeds of his life. But that man who sets himself the task of singling out the thread of order from the tapestry will by the decision alone have taken charge of the world and it is only by such taking charge that he will effect a way to dictate the terms of his own fate.'

“I believe all suffering is caused by ignorance. People inflict pain on others in the selfish pursuit of their happiness or satisfaction. Yet true happiness comes from a sense of inner peace and contentment, which in turn must be achieved through the cultivation of altruism, of love and compassion and elimination of ignorance, selfishness and greed.”
― Dalai Lama XIV
“There is a saying in Tibetan, 'Tragedy should be utilized as a source of strength.'
No matter what sort of difficulties, how painful experience is, if we lose our hope, that's our real disaster.”
