Four types of people

There are four types of people: the 'dead', who deny the Lord and declare that they alone exist, independent, free, self-regulating and self-directed; the 'sick', who call upon the Lord whenever some calamity befalls them or whenever they feel temporarily deserted by the usual sources of succour; the 'dull', who know that God is the eternal companion, but who remember it only off and on, when the idea presents itself powerfully; and lastly, the 'healthy', who have steady faith in the Lord and who live in His comforting presence always.

-Sai Baba
