“Cross” | Anthony Satori
“I am not going to heaven because I have preached to great crowds or because I’ve read the Bible many times. I’m going to heaven just like the thief on the cross who said in that last moment, ‘Lord, remember me.’”
– Billy Graham

“Emperor Penguin” | Anthony Satori
Emperor penguins are lovely creatures. They are smart and playful. They slide on their bellies in the snow, and they swim with the grace of a majestic bird when they are under the water. Emperor penguins mate for life. They know when they have found the one, and they stay together from that moment forward, forever. They don’t let anything come between them. They don’t let anything pull them apart. I think this is truly a beautiful thing. If you had the chance to go back in time, would you be like an emperor penguin? Would I? I’d like to think that we would. And if, by God’s grace, I ever have the chance again, I believe that I will. Because in my heart, in my nature, I am an emperor penguin.
“Black and Yellow Butterfly on Blue Flowers” | Anthony Satori

– Jiddu Krishnamurti
“Chocolate Covered Ice Cream Bar” | Anthony Satori
“Together with a culture of work, there must also be a culture of leisure as gratification. To put it another way: people who work must also take the time to relax, to be with their families, to enjoy themselves, to read, to listen to music, to play a sport.”
– Pope Francis
“Ten Past Watermelon” | Anthony Satori
“And I think it’s gonna be alright. Yeah, the worst is over now. The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball.”
