A young woman wearing many strings of beads raised her hand when Suzuki asked for questions. “Suzuki Roshi, what is sex?”

“Once you say sex, everything is sex,” he answered.

One evening in a lecture Suzuki Roshi said, “If you’re not a Buddhist you think there are Buddhists and non-Buddhists, but if you’re a Buddhist you realize everybody’s a Buddhist—even the bugs.”

Asked why there was a rule of silence during most meals, Suzuki Roshi answered, “You cannot eat and talk at the same time.”
