The greatest truths are the simplest, and so are the greatest men. — © Julius Charles Hare
The greatest truths are the simplest, and so are the greatest men.
The greatest truths are commonly the simplest.
The greatest achievement is selflessness. The greatest worth is self-mastery. The greatest quality is seeking to serve others. The greatest precept is continual awareness. The greatest medicine is the emptiness of everything. The greatest action is not conforming with the worlds ways. The greatest magic is transmuting the passions. The greatest generosity is non-attachment. The greatest goodness is a peaceful mind. The greatest patience is humility. The greatest effort is not concerned with results. The greatest meditation is a mind that lets go. The greatest wisdom is seeing through appearances.
The greatest truths are the simplest things in the world, simple as your own existence.

The very greatest genius, after all, is not the greatest thing in the world, any more than the greatest city in the world is the country or the sky. It is the concentration of some of its greatest powers, but it is not the greatest diffusion of its might. It is not the habit of its success, the stability of its sereneness.
Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.
The greatest masters are the greatest apprentices as well; they are not only greatest givers but also greatest takers.
This is the greatest paradox: the emotions cannot be trusted; yet it is the emotions that tell us the greatest truths.
Dogs are often happier than men simply because the simplest things are the greatest things for them!
The greatest progress is in the sciences that study the simplest systems. So take, say, physics - greatest progress there. But one of the reasons is that the physicists have an advantage that no other branch of sciences has. If something gets too complicated, they hand it to someone else.
There's no such thing as the greatest album ever. There's no greatest book, greatest human, greatest movie. At a push, the closest record to perfection I know is What's Going On by Marvin Gaye or The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds but possibly because they are widely recognized as such.
John Paul II was one of the greatest men of the last century. Perhaps the greatest.
We have the greatest Hall of all the Halls. And to be able to join these men, on this stage, in football heaven is the greatest day of my life.
No one knows whether death may not be the greatest of all blessings for a man, yet men fear it as if they knew it was the greatest of evils.
The greatest ideas are the simplest.
