Quotes of which I lost the source:

"Here are the Teachings, if they seem right to you then take them. Take them
to your heart. Take them to your lives. If you are not sure,
meet them with an open mind. Take them for further study. Think
over them. If there is anything in them that does not appeal to
the best in you, cast it out."

"And it does not matter who tells
it to you. If it does not appeal to you as being true, then you
are not true to yourself if you try to accept it. No genuine
Teacher will ever ask you to do anything that goes against your
conscience or against your moral sense."
