Hunting and gathering are in my blood. But I've lived long enough to witness a diminution in the seas, and to notice a fragility where once I saw - or assumed - an endless bounty.
A lot of people pass through the thinking I'm a guru and take enough trips to understand that no, I was just a witness. I was just a witness.
A man is not primarily a witness against something. That is only incidental to the fact that he is a witness for something.
Witness Donald Trump's current presidential campaign. So first people need to find the white spaces, the unexploited or underexploited niches where there is less competition and more opportunity.
Reading, reflection and time have convinced me that the interests of society require the observation of those moral precepts only in which all religions agree (for all forbid us to steal, murder, plunder, or bear false witness), and that we should not intermeddle with the particular dogmas in which all religions differ, and which are totally unconnected with morality.
The body is an instrument, the mind its function, the witness and reward of its operation.

When you deal with your brother, be pleasant, but get a witness.
You must know how to translate the indications of the word into daily witness, allowing yourselves to be formed by the word which, like seed sown in good soil, brings abundant fruit. Thus you will remain docile to the Spirit and grow in union with God, you will cultivate fraternal communion among yourselves and be ready to serve your brethren generously, especially those most in need.
If you and I have not seen God, we cannot bear witness to God.
Parents, whether or not we believe in a deity, know that to witness a child's mind searching for meaning is a miracle.
For in truth it is life that gives unto life-while you, who deem yourself a giver, are but a witness.
Because ultimately only the witness -- and not the actors -- knows the truth (Vyasa to Draupadi)
