“Adventures are a way to learn and have fun, ideal for the ignorant less than seven year old child who needs to gain understanding via play and unseriousness. The arrogant child needs conviction borne of out of an understanding of life - the wise are seldom arrogant and blabbermouths. Bombarding the arrogant seven to fourteen year old child with things to think about works wonders - advice, good books, guidiance, a vision. The young adult needs purpose and skills. It's time to see things take form. By fourteen a child should understand the many ways things are created such as how sex creates babies, how money is made and how houses are designed and built. Verily, it takes more than love to parent a child.”

“I read in a "high-class" review of Miss Rebecca West's book on St. Augustine, the astounding statement that the Catholic Church regards sex as having the nature of sin. How marriage can be a sacrament if sex is a sin, or why it is the Catholics who are in favour of birth and their foes in favour of birth-control, I will leave to the critic to worry out for himself. (chapter 4)”

“The Buddha compared attachment to drinking salt water from an ocean. The more we drink, the thirstier we get. Likewise, when our mind is conditioned by attachment, however much we have, we never really experience contentment. We lose the ability to distinguish between the bare experience of happiness and whatever objects temporarily make us happy. As a result, we not only become dependent on the object, but we also reinforce the neuronal patterns that condition us to rely on an external source to give us happiness.”
