A philosopher is a sort of intellectual yokel who gawks at things that sensible people take for granted.

And the attitude of faith is the very opposite of clinging to belief, of holding on.

Philosophy is man’s expression of curiosity about everything and his attempt to make sense of the world primarily through his intellect.

Naturally, for a person who finds his identity in something other than his full organism is less than half a man. He is cut off from complete participation in nature. Instead of being a body, he 'has' a body. Instead of living and loving he 'has' instincts for survival and copulation.

To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don't grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.

No one's mouth is big enough to utter the whole thing.

Buddhism has in it no idea of there being a moral law laid down by somekind of cosmic lawgiver.
