Knowing what is not so is often quite as important as knowing what is.

Death is the unknown in which all of us lived before birth.

[A] life full of goals or end-points is like trying to abate one’s hunger by eating merely the two precise ends of a banana.

There is no problem of how to love. We love. We are love, and the only problem is the direction of love, whether it is to go straight out like sunlight, or to try to turn back on itself.

We feel that our actions are voluntary when they follow a decision, and involuntary when they happen without decision. But if decision itself were voluntary, every decision would have to be preceded by a decision to decide—an infinite regression which fortunately does not occur.
