Quote by Moshé Feldenkrais

“But willpower is necessary only where _ability_ to do is lacking. Learning ... is not the training of willpower but the acquisition of the skill to inhibit parasitic action and the ability to direct clear motivations as a result of self-knowledge. [Introduction]”

The Challenger crew was pulling us into the future, and we'll continue to follow them.”
