Quote by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin

“I think that all things which evoke discipline: study, and our duties to men and to the commonwealth, and war, and personal hardship, and even the need for subsistence, ought to be greeted by us with profound gratitude; for only through them can we attain to the least detachment; and only so can we know peace.”

“I’m the music in my ears, sound, hear, disappear. I’m the trees I see, moving, not moving, swaying in the wind. I’m the touch of invisible hands when I’m drowning, grab, stretch, hold. I’m the scent of jasmine in the summer breeze, intoxicating, longing, calming. I’m the taste of honey, sweet on the tongue, smooth, happy. I’m the thought of nothing, embracing, peaceful, alive. I’m everything, life, home, peace. I’m nothing.”
