Eyes blinded by the fog of thingscannot see truth. Ears deafened by the din of thingscannot hear truth. Brains bewildered by the whirl of thingscannot think truth. Hearts deadened by the weight of thingscannot feel truth. Throats choked by the dust of thingscannot speak truth.

About This Quote

Some people will tell you that your heart is what matters most and that your eyes, ears and brain can be replaced. But, your heart is what will keep you alive, and without it you really can’t think or feel anything. Your heart is the part of you that keeps love alive and the part of you that will always be with those you love.
