What are some old sayings that have inspired you?

"Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships."  has been what inspired me, especially in projects (at work) where we will always need to collaborate as a team.

“The wound is the place where the Light enters you" is one of the old sayings that resonates with me the most. I always think of it alongside Jung's concept of the shadow: Rumi suggests that a person matures through the light entering through the crack the wound creates, while Jung states that a person who integrates their Shadow achieves wholeness. After all, in both ideas, growth isn't about perfection; it's about illuminating the wounded and dark parts. This also means that difficult experiences have an instructive side to them.
