be found in noise and restlessness.

We need silence to be able to touch souls.

the beans and squashes, which give us life.

which, moving the air, has banished diseases.
We return thanks to the moon and the stars,
which have given us their light when the sun was gone.

that he has protected his grandchildren from witches and reptiles,

in whom is embodied all goodness,
and who directs all things for the good of his children.

The Moon Cannot Be Stolen:
A thief entered the little hut of a Zen Master,
but discovered there was nothing to steal.
The Zen Master discovered the thief.
"You have come a long way to visit me," he told the prowler,
"and you should not return empty-handed.
Please take my clothes as a gift."
The thief was bewildered,
but he took the clothes and slunk away.
The Zen Master sat naked, watching the moon.
"Poor fellow," he mused,
"I wish I could have given him this beautiful moon."

People sort themselves into groups
of happy people and unhappy people
through two different, but complementary mechanisms,

for others who are like me in some way -
in this case by sharing my emotional outlook on life.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

It's not much of a tail, but I'm sort of attached to it.

Mind can never be intelligent - only no-mind is intelligent.
Only no-mind is original and radical.
Only no-mind is revolutionary - revolution in action.
The mind gives you a sort of stupor.
Burdened by the memories of the past,
burdened by the projections of the future,
you go on living - at the minimum.
You dont live at the maximum.
Your flame remains very dim.
Once you start dropping thoughts,
the dust that you have collected in the past,
the flame arises - clean, clear, alive, young.
Your whole life becomes a flame,
and a flame without any smoke.
That is what awareness is.
- Osho

I am turned into a sort of machine for observing facts
and grinding out conclusions.
- Charles Darwin

Many of us have been conditioned to trust others' opinions
more than our own, and I believe that sort of trust is excessive.
This is especially true with regard to authority figures -
doctors, lawyers, priests. I trust my doctor's intentions toward me,
but I don't blindly follow his suggestions
without checking other sources also.
He was trained to prescribe a pill for everything,
and does it with the best of intentions,
but I often choose to trust God's quiet voice inside me
rather than my doctor's medical advice.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

The basic thing nobody asks is
why do people take drugs of any sort?

that's making us so pressurized,
that we cannot live without guarding ourselves against it?
- John Lennon

the apathy of human beings.

Is it ignorance or apathy?
Hey, I don't know and I don't care.
- Jimmy Buffett

The price of apathy towards public affairs
is to be ruled by evil men.
- Plato

Apathy, indifference, not caring...
It may sound insensitive for me to say, "I don't care,"
but ask first to what I am indifferent.
I choose to be caring, compassionate
and kind toward all people,
and I also choose to be indifferent to gossip,
petty complaints, and idle chatter.
About those, I just don't care.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Often, the greatest joy is to be found not in new things,

for future generations.
Create the legacy of a better world.

but far more important...
use this symbolism - this imagery -
to represent the kind of legacy
you want to leave to future generations.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

When you open up to the ultimate,

Now you are no longer separate -

- Osho

that if you love until it hurts,
there can be no more hurt, only more love.

Our chief want in life is somebody
who shall make us do what we can.
Having found them, we shall then hate them for it.

What is admirable about those
who have been of great service to humanity
is not that they suffered in being of service,
