To Be True to the Situation of Where You Are
"On one level, I hate time because it's moving [laughs]. I say, 'Hold it, kid. I want to live a little longer.' I want to be around. I love life. I love people. I don't know why. They're not so nice [laughs], but I have that — when I see a little kindness of somebody, I see a tear in his eye. It opens me up."
~ Rabbi David Hartman
It Pulls Me into Its Trap of Attention
“Look, I want to love this world
as though it's the last chance I'm ever going to get
to be alive
and know it.”
~ Mary Oliver
Want Never Goes Away
"The problem isn't that you are a bad manager of your time, you are a bad tactician in the war inside your brain."
~ David McRaney
We are Not Starting with a Clean Slate
"Almost always our focus is on something else—not this. We seek another moment of greater happiness— not this moment. Contentment seems always elsewhere—never here."
~ Gaylon Ferguson
