Quotations is about words, written and spoken throughout history. Words speak to us through our eyes and our ears. They enrich our lives, allow us to communicate thoughts to others, and sometimes, last for generations. This podcast explores not only the words, but the speaker, author, figure, or character who originated them. To whom were they said or written? What was their intended effect and on whom? What was the originator thinking? Find out each episode and we discover new quotations, some familiar, some not!

Buddhist Monk, Pema Chodron brings a wonderful challenge to the podcast. Her words are easy to say, yet extremely difficult to implement. She calls on us to be vulnerable, exposed, and blindly faithful that we will survive life's challenges.
With decades of practice in meditation, deep thought, speaking, and educating, Pema's words are applicable within Buddhist context and to the non-practitioner alike. Each of us can find challenging and reassuring words in the texts of Buddhism. This episode is but a brief glimpse into but a few of these words.
In this, our last episode of 2020, her words are especially apropos and profound.
