A wise man should have money in his head, but not in his heart.
Jonathan Swift

A wise person should have money in their head, but not in their heart.

Life contains but two tragedies. One is not to get your heart's desire; the other is to get it.
George Bernard Shaw

It is a curious sensation: the sort of pain that goes mercifully beyond our powers of feeling. When your heart is broken, your boats are burned: nothing matters any more. It is the end of happiness and the beginning of peace.
George Bernard Shaw

If I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain.
Emily Dickinson

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don't know ourselves! Why, thirty or forty skins or hides, as thick and hard as an ox's or bear's, cover the soul. Go into your own ground and learn to know yourself there.
Meister Eckhart

All God wants of man is a peaceful heart.
Meister Eckhart

This is at the heart of all good education, where the teacher asks students to think and engages them in encouraging dialogues, constantly checking for understanding and growth.
William Glasser

Man becomes man only by his intelligence, but he is man only by his heart.
Henri Frederic Amiel
