“I often think there are three primary responses to suffering - rage, intoxication, or growth. We either want revenge for our pain, or we numb ourselves with the endless array of intoxicants available to us, from drugs to overwork, or we grow in empathy. Emptiness can transform into spaciousness; lack can become an agent of social action. But I think many of us struggle to remain on that third path without backsliding into the other two.

“Television, radio, and all the sources of amusement and information that surround us in our daily lives are also artificial props. They can give us the impression that our minds are active, because we are required to react to stimuli from the outside. But the power of those external stimuli to keep us going is limited. They are like drugs. We grow used to them, and we continuously need more and more of them. Eventually, they have little or no effect. Then, if we lack resources within ourselves, we cease to grow intellectually, morally, and spiritually. And we we cease to grow, we begin to die.” IfsNeedsGivingMindLittlesUsedDiesGrowsEffectsInformationTelevisionSourceDrugResourcesRadioActiveCeaseImpressionDaily LifeSurroundArtificialAmusementStimulusProps Author:Mortimer Adler

“True love, like any other strong and addicting drug, is boring — once the tale of encounter and discovery is told, kisses quickly grow stale and caresses tiresome… except, of course, to those who share the kisses, who give and take the caresses while every sound and color of the world seems to deepen and brighten around them. As with any other strong drug, true first love is really only interesting to those who have become its prisoners. And, as is true of any other strong and addicting drug, true first love is dangerous.” WorldLoveGivingFirstsSeemsCoursesStrongGrowsSoundLove IsInterestingShareDangerousColorDrugKissingDiscoveryBoringTalesEncountersPrisonerFirst LoveStaleCaressGive And TakeTiresomeDark Tower Series Book:The Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass Source: The Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass
