“The real reason why human life can be so utterly exasperating and frustrating is not because there are facts called death, pain, fear, or hunger. The madness of the thing is that when such facts are present, we circle, buzz, writhe, and whirl, trying to get the I out of the experience... Sanity, wholeness and integration lie in the realisation that we are not divided, that man and his present experience are one, and that no separate I or mind can be found .... [Life] is a dance, and when you are dancing, you are not intent on getting somewhere. The meaning and purpose of dancing is the dance.” MenTryingMindHumansRealReasonFactsPainLife IsLyingPurposeFoundMadnessDancingHungerCirclesHuman LifeReason WhyDividedSanityWholenessIntegrationFrustratingBuzzRealisation Author:Alan Watts
“The reason why so few good books are written is, that so few people that can write know anything. In general an author has always lived in a room, has read books, has cultivated science, is acquainted with the style and sentiments of the best authors, but he is out of the way of employing his own eyes and ears. He has nothing to hear and nothing to see. His life is a vacuum.” PeopleKnowsWayWritingBookReasonEyeLife IsRoomsWrittenStyleEarsReason WhySentimentsGood BookVacuumsEmploying Book:The collected works of Walter Bagehot Source: The collected works of Walter Bagehot
